Möt Irma González, Renés dotter, i Eskilstuna den 3 april!

Frige De 5 kubanska politiska fångarna i USA
Möt Irma González - En dotters kamp för sin far
Gillbergavägen 4 (Järnvägskorsningen), Eskilstuna
Söndag 3 april 14:00
De 5 greps för snart 13 år sedan och utsattes för justitiemord i Miami när de orättfärdigt dömdes till flera gånger livstidsstraff för att de hade infiltrerat terroristorganisationer som angrep Kuba. En av dem var René González, far till Irma González som den 12 september 1998, klockan fyra på morgonen, fick se sin halvnakna far föras iväg med hugg och slag. Nu är hon psykolog på Kuba, och på kampanjturné i Norden.
Runt om i världen växer kampanjen för De 5. Den har stöd av FN:s ”Arbetsgrupp om godtyckliga arresteringar”, Kyrkornas världsråd, USA:s Council och Christian Churches, Kubas Kyrkoråd, Association of American Jurists, Amnesty International, Nobelpristagare – litterära och fredspristagare – regeringar, parlamentariker, biskopar, präster, jurister, författare, människorättsaktivister och intellektuella över hela världen.

Brev till Barack Obama från Kommittén Frige de Fem!
Följande brev har mejlats och även skickats med ordinarie post till Vita Huset.
Idag, 5 mars 2011, promenerade vi med flaggor och banderoller till USAs ambassad, där vi också försökte överlämna brevet. Ambassadpersonalen vägrade ta emot det, av säkerhetsskäl (!), och hade i stället fullt upp med att ta bilder på alla som deltog i aktionen...

Dear President Obama,
In 2010, women in Sweden sent several letters to your wife with an appeal to take up the cause of two Cuban women, Adriana Pérez and Olga Salanueva who, for over ten years, have been denied a visa to travel to the United States to visit their husbands, Gerardo Hernández and René González. Both men belong to the group known around the world as the “Cuban Five”. They were unjustly sentenced for gathering information in the US about terrorist operations in Florida directed against Cuba.
The struggle for Olga Salanueva’s and Adriana Pérez right to family visits is supported by a significant number of religious, judicial and human right organizations, as well as a long list of Nobel Prize winners, members of parliaments, religious and union leaders, jurists, authors, human rights activist, actors and artists, and intellectuals around the world.
On May 27th, 2005, the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention denounced the “arbitrary” detention of the Cuban Five, stating that it was a violation of international norm and demanded a new trial. Recently, in a report released in October 2010, Amnesty International noted doubts about the fairness and impartiality of the trial, and called on the US government to review the case and mitigate any injustice through the clemency process or other appropriate means.
Today, committees in support of the Cuban Five from around the world are reaching out to you by phone calls, mails, letters, faxes, requesting that you grant the Cuban Five, Gerardo Hernández, Ramón Labañino, René González, Antonio Guerrero and Fernando González, their immediate freedom.
In Stockholm, the members of the Free the Five Committee adhere to this petition, demanding you to make use of the rights conferred upon you by the US Constitution, as a lawyer, as a father, as a son, as a husband, and as a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, to end this colossal injustice and to free the Cuban Five now! And that until this happens, you will grant visas to Adriana Pérez and Olga Salanueva, so that they may immediately visit their imprisoned husbands!

Hälsning från De Fem Kubanerna inför Kärlekens och Vänskapens Dag!

Den 14 februari, Kärlekens och Vänskapens Dag
Bröder och systrar:
Alla Ni har alltid funnits vid vår sida, såväl i dåliga som i goda tider. Ni har delat vår glädje över segrarna och vår smärta över motgångarna, men vi har alltid varit enade.
Var och en av Er ger oss kärlekens dygd, den mest trogna vänskapen, den mest eviga lojaliteten. Den här mycket speciella dagen vill vi att Ni tar emot all den kärlek och tacksamhet som Ni förtjänar, eftersom vi älskar Er på samma sätt och Ni gör oss oövervinnerliga.
Eftersom vi lever i kampen
Eftersom Ni ger oss styrkan och vapnen
Eftersom Er ömhet ger näring åt våra drömmar
Eftersom Ni är verkligheten som kommer att göra drömmarna till verklighet
Eftersom Ni personifierar vänskapen och kärleken…
GRATTIS från hela vårt hjärta!
De FEM
