Massive Prisoner Strike Continues as Two on Brink of Death [April 28 - May 5]
May 05, 2012
By MIFTAH
|
Over 2,000 Palestinian prisoners continued their open hunger strike for a third week in a row, with two administrative detainees – Thaer Halahleh and Bilal Diab – on the brink of death. The two have been without food since February 29. On May 3, Diab fainted during an Israel High Court session to discuss an appeal to cancel their administration detention, which the judge postponed for 48 hours. According to Arab Knesset member Ahmad Tibi who is also a physician and who examined the two, they were both in extremely poor condition. An Israeli doctor from physicians for human rights who also examined Bilal gave details of his condition.

The Dark Facade Behind the Green Gardens
May 02, 2012
By Julie Holm for MIFTAH
|
On a beautiful sunny hike last Friday I realized how I constantly had my body, and my face, pointed in one direction only, making a subconscious effort not to see what was behind me. I enjoyed the silence and the stunning Palestinian nature. On the horizon I could see all the way from Jericho to Jerusalem, the busy cities looking like magical oases glistening in the sun. Focusing on the breathtaking scenery and enjoying the company, I was always, however, very aware that if I turned around and looked behind me I would see something that always makes me cringe and tenses up my entire body. Not much can make me quiet but this sight usually does the trick.

MIFTAH's Opinion & Editorials
What Else Do They Want From Us?
April 30, 2012
By Joharah Baker for MIFTAH
|
The best way to be objective is to take a step back from your own involvement in a situation and look inward. As tough as this may be, many Palestinians have begun to do just that, at least to assess what more can or cannot be done to reach their goals.
Objectively, I ask myself this same question. As a leadership, a people and even as a revolution, the question churns in my – and I am sure many others – head as to what more can the Palestinians do to fulfill their goal of a Palestinian state...

Changing Course in Israel
May 05, 2012
By Patrick Seale
In Gulf News, 4 May. 2012
Israel’s hard-line Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing an unprecedented challenge. As Israel’s longest serving prime minister, who has been in office for more than three years, he had come to seem immovable. But leading figures of Israel’s security establishment, as well as prominent American Jews, have started openly to contest two of his most fundamental policies: his portrayal of Iran’s nuclear programme as an ‘existential’ danger to Israel, raising the spectre of an imminent Holocaust...

Hunger Intifada? Palestinian Prisoners Wield New-Old Tool Against Israel
May 05, 2012
By Rebecca Collard
In The Christian Science Monitor
As many as 2,000 Palestinian prisoners – nearly half of the 4,500 Palestinians currently in Israeli jails – have launched a mass hunger strike that is gaining momentum and putting pressure on Israel to review prisoner demands. More prisoners join each day, and many see hunger striking as their last option, especially those who are held without charge or trial under Israel's administrative detention policy and limited legal recourse...
