The Wire

Today, as Parliament opened in Canberra a group numbering in the hundreds marched on Capital Hill to demand the immediate return of David Hicks from the US military instillation at Guantanamo Bay. And in a bid to add momentum to the campaign, lobby group Get Up! has released an ad, showing David Hicks as a young child, in a bid to put a human face on the debate. The Wire caught up with Simon Cunich an activist with the Stop the war coalition, who attended the rally.
