Dear Friends of Voices,

As we approach the eighth anniversary of the beginning of the Voices in the Wilderness campaign (this Monday, Martin Luther King day) we are very grateful to see the vast network of people that has grown to be a part of Voices in the Wilderness. We feel confident that if this network were to act together for justice on issues such as the one described in this email, our voices would be heard loud and strong.

PLEASE call your Senators and Representative today and ask that they urge the Security Detainee Review Board in Baghdad, Iraq, to swiftly examine the cases of the Palestinian students listed below and seek their immediate release. Kathy Kelly’s article explaining the details of this situation can be found here.
