Free the HLF5 with Nida and Zaira Abu Baker
Manage episode 350710294 series 2899704
This week Lara and Michael sit down with Nida and Zaira Abu Baker, daughters of Shukri Abu Baker one of the Holy Land Foundation 5. Shukri is a political prisoner prosecuted in a wave of unjust rulings following post-9/11 hysteria. The ACLU said the prosecution was part of a pattern of the US government targeting faith-based charities "on the basis of unsubstantiated evidence and without even basic due process protections". We discuss the resurgence of the campaign to Free Shukri Abu Baker and the other two members of the HLF5 who remain unjustly imprisoned. We talk about the absolute delusion of the largest exporter of terrorism in the world (the US government) convicting a Muslim family and community man on preposterous charges related to terrorism. In doing so they destroyed the lives of all 5 families and a charity that helped to improve the conditions for impoverished people across the world.
