Bahraini medical doctor and mother Fatima Haji is being sentenced to jail. Fatima faces years in prison because she treated injured people at the Salmaniya Medical Complex in Bahrain. She was performing her ethical duties as a doctor - healing the sick and wounded - but has been charged with, "incitement to overthrow the regime." Further, she is being sentenced by Bahrain's military court, which does not meet with international prosecution standards, breaching those set forth in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights regularly.

US Secretary of State Clinton, stand with her now, and stand with all detained Bahraini medics who have, like her, only been serving the many needs of humanity.  We sincerely request that you exemplify America's belief in standing-up for people like Fatima.  Please contact Bahrain's military court on Fatima's behalf and send our collective plea that she, and all medics similarly involved, be granted clemency from these unacceptable jail sentences immediately.
