Benatta Coalition for a Public Review

I wanted to apprise our readers that we’re having some service interruptions. We felt that our old hosting service was not meeting our needs, so we are in the process of changing to another hosting provider. Hopefully we will have everything back to normal, and new users will again be able to register. It sucks, but better go through the change now, than to continue going through unacceptable service interruptions. So please be patient with us as we go through this transition.

After everything’s in working order again, we will be implementing ways in which everyone can help Ben, both on the Canadian side and the American side. There are many, many others in these and similar situations. There are so many abuses going on that it’s overwhelming. For my own part, I am often confronted by statements such as… “There’s so many who need help, you can’t help them all,” and similar discouraging sentiments. My answer to that is that here’s one person we CAN help. We can’t allow these abuses to go on to placate our intellectual laziness. It’s easy to throw up our hands and declare the situation is “bigger” than we are, and that somehow we are powerless. If we are powerless, it is because we choose not to exercise the power that we have. I have the power to help Benamar Benatta, in whatever capacity that is. Everyone can do something. All we’re asking is for concerned people to do what is in their power to do. Everyone has the power to write a letter. Make a phone call. Show support. Make your voices heard.

Soon, we will be giving you the opportunity to do just that. So please keep checking back. When the registration process is working again, I’ll post and let everyone know.

Edit: Thanks to our tech magician Mr. CT, the site is functional again. Everything should be working fine; new comers can now register again. If anyone notices anything that’s broken let us know. Otherwise we are back on track. Many thanks to CT!
