Welcome to the Free Dr Haneef Blog.
Tim over at Road to Surfdom has a fantastic timeline of one of the most dispicable acts this government has ever perpetrated. Yes, even when you stack it up against the way this government treats refugees.
This story is being well covered by Democrat SenatorAndrew Bartlett, lawyerJeremy Sear, Larvatus Prodeo and a host of other bloggers.
This blog isn't going to re-hash the disgraceful details.
Instead it is being set up to assist Dr Haneef.
Please take 2 minutes to send a "sorry" or "I'm thinking of you" email to freedrhaneef@yahoo.com.au
Keep them short and heartfelt. No long rants about the government thanks. I think Mohamed may already know what many people think on that matter.
I will collect them and try to get them to Dr Haneef through his lawyers.
I think providing emotional support to Dr Haneef isn't illegal yet!
I will be seeking legal advice to to find out whether collecting money for Dr Haneef is a breach of anti-terror legislation. If it isn't I will set up an account where people can donate money for phonecards, postage, and support for Dr Haneef's wife and child.
I will also be providing a list of people who need to be lobbied to get Haneef released.
You can forget Andrews, Howard, and Ruddock. Without wanting to offend, these people would have to be the three most heartless, most power-hungry, and most divisive neo-compassionate shits ever to sit in parliament.
Please email moderate Liberals who have shown courage on similar matters to see if backbench pressure can be applied.
Try Petro Georgiou Judy Moylan and Russell Broadbent.
I will be putting up one activity a day from now on. Feel free to post comments, feedback, your actions, and suggestions.
Remember people, democracy is not a spectator sport.

We've got our first letter of support.
Thanks Mandy
Keep 'em coming people
I've sent an email to Petro.
The whole thing has descended into high farce, and would be funny if the consequences weren't so serious for Dr Haneef and all of us!
Thanks Bendigo,
Keep spreading the word about the blog.
I'd also like to know what Petro had to say. I'd like to think he is still courageous.
Spelling errors, profanities, inaccuracies & hyperbole.
All in an attempt to subvert the judicial process.
No surprises here.
Good on you for your initiative with the blog.
