is the front cover of a pamphlet produced by a Kuwaiti-based anti-Guantanamo organization
that was set up in November to try and win the release of two Kuwaiti
prisoners, pictured on the cover of the pamphlet, who are detained at the

one of the detainee's attorneys of "smuggling" the pamphlet into
Guantanamo three weeks before he issued a widely condemned order calling for a
review of detainees' legal mail. (Image: Lt. Col. Barry Wingard)
