A deal has emerged between the Israeli government and detainee Samer Issawi which will lead to Issawi’s release at the end of the year in return for ending his hunger strike, which he has been on since August.
Issawi was originally arrested in 2002, and released in October 2011 as part of the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange. Israel re-arrested Issawi, as with so many others, just months later, accusing him of violating his terms of release by traveling outside his home village of Issawiyeh.
Issawi is the third hunger striker to reach a deal in the past three months, with Ayman Sharawneh, held under similar circumstances, being sentenced last month to 10 years in the Gaza Strip in lieu of prison time.
The deals reflect growing concern in Israel that the deaths of such hunger strikers could spark yet more riots in the occupied West Bank, which is already on edge over the detainee abuse and deaths that occur in the course of Israel’s regular business in the region.
Issawi’s deal seems unique in that once he is released, he will be sentenced to stay in this single small village for the rest of his life. If he ever leaves, whether to go to the occupied West Bank, the Gaza Strip, or abroad, he would face another 12 and a half years in prison as punishment.
Blood trusty apartheid regime.., the 21st century fascism which even hitler wouldn't want to know anything off or have anything to do with.
Yeah, because Hitler would have made deals with hunger strikers.
It's one thing to make a case against Israel. It's another thing to make yourself look like an idiot trying to do so.
If Hitler was a life…, he would be shame of what Israel is doing.., not because leading the world toward fascism but lying about it. He simply would not approve this Neo Fascism whom are helping an apartheid regime, a blood trusty regime, warmongering system, an anti humanity social system that for last 60 years have brought nothing to this world but misery for the mankind and people of middle east, a system that consist of bunch of thieves that have created nothing but more of a kind, Rothschild, APAC fooling the american people with their falsified democracy….,and etc. etc. etc. and……….
OK, so it's not that you're making yourself look like an idiot, it's that you are one?
No I am making for you to come up with your idiotic answers.., so people can see who the hell you are and what you support.., you .., I don't know what. Just don't live your day job.., you.., not eve Israeli government won't to have anything to do wit you.
What is it that you think I support? And why do you think I'd want to have anything to do with the Israeli government?
Look, if you want to compare Israel to Hitler, that's fine. Rather a bit overheated given that he murdered 90% of Europe's Jews while Israel can't seem to even get a handle on the population GROWTH in the West Bank and Gaza, but whatever.
But asserting that Israel is so much worse than Hitler that he'd be "ashamed" of them, or that Israel is more accomplished at lying than the architect of the occupation of the Sudetenland, and Anschluss with Austria, etc. is idiotic. It makes you look stupid, and that in turn makes all your other arguments look stupid.
The thing is, you've had an easy time of it here at Antiwar.com. You come here every day and post the same drivel on every story every day, and nobody ever suggests to you that you might convince more people if you extract your cranium from your rectum and start working at making good arguments instead filling up IntenseDebate's hard drives with your copy/paste obsession. Consider this a wake-up call.
