Thanks for your support of British refusenik Joe Glenton

(28.07.2010) Joe Glenton was released on July 12th after serving a prison term for refusing to return to Afghanistan. On March 5, 2010, he had been sentenced to nine months in jail for having gone AWOL after refusing to return to Afghanistan because he opposed the war.

Joe Glenton was supported internationally with action days organized by the British organization Payday and a campaign to send him postcards launched by Connection e.V., Iraq Veterans Against the War Europe, DFG-VK Hesse.

'At one point', Joe Glenton said yesterday, 'I was getting 200 letters a day from all over the world so I never felt alone at any point. I'm going to university in September and that's going to be fantastic. I've got a lot to look forward to.'

The organizations along with Joe Glenton would like to thank for all protest letters to the British government as well as all the support shown for Joe Glenton.
