"Let my people go?" - 'Messiah' Obama to 'prioritize' case of Londoner held in Guantanamo.(ITV).

National Security Council spokeswoman Bernadette Meehan said Obama said he would "prioritize" the case of the last British person held in the notorious prison.

Prime Minister Cameron raised this case with the president, and the president told him that he understands why this case is of great interest to the Prime Minister and the British people. "The president committed to the Prime Minister that we will prioritise this case, while making sure any action taken is consistent with our national security.

– US NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL SPOKESWOMAN BERNADETTE MEEHAN A British government source welcomed the commitment as a "step forward". We see this as a step forward. We now need to keep working with the Americans and continue our discussions to resolve this case once and for all. – GOVERNMENT SOURCE.

Aamer, whose wife and four children live in Battersea, was captured by US forces in Afghanistan in 2002. His family say he was an aid worker.

A group of top health experts today joined growing calls for Aamer's release saying continued detention was having an appalling effect on his medical condition.

The 45-year-old, originally from Saudi Arabia, is said to be suffering from a range of illnesses including post-traumatic stress disorder and asthma.

The medics, including professors, consultants and GPs, have written a letter to the Daily Mail expressing frustration at the attitude of the Foreign Office.

An assessment on Aamer prepared by a military analyst in November 2007 and leaked by Wikileaks said Aamer, who was arrested in Afghanistan in 2001, was a close associate of Osama bin Laden and so powerful a figure that he is capable of controlling other detainees to the point of being able to compel them to commit suicide.

Aamer has denied being associated with al Qaeda and says he was working for an Islamic charity in Afghanistan during the US invasion in 2001.

The assessment said Aamer is "extremely egotistical," that he "manipulated debriefers and guard staff" and that, on the advice of one of his Reprieve attorney, Clive Stafford Smith, he led a hunger strike in the summer of 2005 involving more than 100 detainees. Aamer has said the strike was aimed at bringing Guantanamo in line with the Geneva Conventions. Hmmm.....Don't tell me he's a relative to this Shaker? And where does this Yusuf Qaradawi live? Yes you guessed it.... Obama's ME 'peacepartner' Qatar.  More here.
