Monday, December 10

Protest Attacks on Immigrants!
Oppose Mass Detention Shrouded in Secrecy!
Fight Racial Profiling!
Defend Civil Rights & Liberties!

***   Kate Martin of the Centre for National Security Studies in
Washington said: "It is quite remarkable that they have detained so
many people and have refused to give their identities. The secret
detention is frighteningly close to the practice of 'disappearing'
people in Latin America."

She said some reports suggested that only around 10 out of 1,087
arrested were suspected of terrorist connections but information
about them was still being withheld.
