The Guantánamo document that changed my life 20 years ago today The Pentagon’s reluctant, court-ordered release of the first ever prisoner list from Guantánamo on April 20, 2006, enabled me to refute the lies that the prison held “the worst of the worst.”

Sama’a and Julia standing in the rubble of their home after Israel’s bombardment. Julia is in the front, holding onto a large gray fallen pole of some sort, wearing a pink puffy coat, denim pants and blue sneakers. Sama’a, her mother, is about six feet back, wearing an oversized white shirt with Mickey Mouse on the front, with a black hooded shirt underneath that is pulled over her head, a black open zip up jacket, and jeans. She is holding up her hands in a peace sign.

Sama’a standing in front of a bus on a dusty dirt road, holding baby Talia with her right arm and holding three year old Julia’s hand with her left. The bus is packed with all of their earthly possessions. Sama’a is wearing a black hijab and black flowy pantsuit, Julia is wearing a purple pink blue and white pattered sundress, and baby Talia is swaddled in a white blanket

3 year old Talia smiling big, standing with her legs spread wide on the concrete floor of an upper level apartment that is bombed out and has no walls. Her curly dark hair is pulled back and she is barefoot, wearing a matching purple sweatsuit with a unicorn on the front. Behind her is the ruins of Gaza city, collapsed buildings, rubble and debris.

3 year old Julia cradles her 7 month old sister Talia over a mattress and pillows inside of a tent. Julia’s eyes are closed, her hair is pulled back in a bun, and she is wearing a black sweatshirt. Talia short dark hair, and she is looking up at the ceiling, wearing brown pajamas with a bear on the front

I am a mom of two young girls whose childhoods have been stolen by war. I have nothing to offer them but fear and helplessness.

Is it conceivable that two children should be deprived of their most basic rights? Please, do not leave them alone in this darkness
