It has been one year since President Barack Obama signed an Executive Order
calling for the closure of the prison at Guantanamo Bay.
Today, 20 veterans are on Capitol Hill, representing over 2000 veterans who
have signed the letter telling Congress to follow through and support
President Obama's call to close the detention center at Guantanamo as a
matter of national security.
Let's join these veterans and tell Congress:

Dear Activist,
For too long the prison at Guantanamo Bay has remained a blight on the
American conscience. Guantanamo is a recruiting tool for terrorists that
undermines our troops and undermines our security. As veterans of the war in
Iraq and Afghanistan, we urge you to take immediate action to permanently
close the prison at Guantanamo Bay.
General Colin Powell has said that if it were up to him, he would close
Guantanamo Bay not tomorrow, but this afternoon. General David Petraeus made
clear in testimony before Congress that he believes that Guantanamo Bay
should be closed. Many other military leaders, both active and retired, have
expressed this view. They know what is at stake for our men and women in
uniform.
We stand with them.

Every day that the facility at Guantanamo Bay remains open and detainees are
held there without trial is another day that terror networks have an
effective recruiting poster - that the United States applies the laws to
some, but is hypocritical when it comes to others. Guantanamo has been used
in videos by senior al Qaeda leadership at least 32 times since 2001 and
four times this year alone. Guantanamo is harmful to our national security
and to the men and women in uniform who we have put into harm's way.
There are many viable options to house and try detainees here on U.S. soil,
including the possible purchase of the state prison in Thomson, Ill. We
support these options as we know that our justice system is capable of
handling those who are accused of harming us. More than 300 terrorists -
foreign and domestic - are currently being held on U.S. soil. 195 terrorism
suspects have been tried and convicted in a U.S. court of law. We believe in
the justice system that we have fought to protect. Those who would use
fear-mongering and demagoguery to tarnish our system of justice run counter
to everything we fought for - the defense of our laws, our Constitution, and
our way of life. Theirs is a position of weakness.
Ours is a position of strength.

Closing the prison at Guantanamo Bay is in the national security interest of
America and of the troops we send into harm's way. We urge you to do so
without delay.
