Fuad Abu Wael has written an article saying what America is doing arouses surprise and amazement and more than that is the American judiciary that known to be deemed as free in a free country. Everything in the United States has changed after the events of September 11, and regrettably even the judiciary. The Americans have now become to see things with one colour not differentiating between the good and the bad, the right and the wrong and the fact and fantasy.

Many laws have been issued that can be termed as ill-reputed ones. One of those laws stipulates the arrest of any American citizen or from any of the world countries under secret evidence. And that was what happened to Sheikh Mohammed al-Mouyad who has been sentenced to 75 years imprisonment and three life sentences while he has not committed any crime to deserve punishment.

Sheikh al-Mouyad charge is that he was raising donations for the children of Palestine and we ask why does not the civil society organisations and human rights act and put pressure on the American government for his release? The writer confirms his belief that the sentences issued against sheikh al-Mouyad were basically for political reasons and therefore the American administration has to reconsider its stands and set the sheikh free to go back to his family, children and homeland.
