Most suffer agonizing, unspeakable pain. Over the years, Amnesty International has counted on people like you to help us save thousands of individuals from the brutal hands of torturers. Fast Action Stops Torture. The aim is to tap the potential of the Internet to intercede in the real world. Torture will be exposed faster and stop sooner.
FAST actions target the most urgent cases that call for immediate action.
Once or twice a month, within hours of verifying that someone is at risk of torture, Amnesty International will send email to you, beep your pager, or call your cell phone. When you get your FAST alert, it will just take minutes for you to log on to the website, sign the pre-written action letter and, with a click of the mouse, email it to the torturers. Follow the instructions for joining. Then, tell your friends, family, colleagues, and neighbors how they can join FAST too. Send a copy of this message to everyone you know.
