The document, linked to below, is a must-read. Here, John Flannery respectfully demands bail for Dr. Paul Maynard who is being held in sub-human conditions in Puerto Rico following his sham conviction on prescribing charges.

Just to be clear; we have repeatedly and for years worked to engage the ACLU, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and yesterday, the International Committee for the Red Cross and have been told each time that while they sympathize with our cause, they have a mandate that does not include protecting doctors or patients from the predations of the US Federal Government- even when lives are at stake.

I pointed out to the gentleman who handles the oversight of Guantanamo for the ICRC that this War on Drugs is just as bogus and transparently a campaign of intimidation and oppression as is the War on Terror, and asked if I could present my case to their board so as to persuade them to enlarge their mandate.
I was given an immediate no.

So American citizens are entirely on their own in our country. We enjoy no protection from these supposed civil liberties organizations.
