Thread: After 3 Years in Solitary with no visitors, Sa’adat's Wife Allowed To Visit Him

‘Abla Sa’adat, the wife of the detained Secretary-General of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), was allowed to visit her husband Sunday, for the first time after three years of solitary confinement.

Abla stated that her husband has high morale despite the suffering and the hunger strikes he has undergone.

Sa’adat was recently released from solitary confinement after the latest hunger strike conducted by over 2,000 detainees demanding their legitimate rights guaranteed by International Law, including their right to family visits.

His wife said that Sa’adat’s body is weak, with a declining health condition, but added that he is filled with determination and pride.

The PFLP secretary general has been on hunger strike twice over the last three years; once for 22 days, and in the most recent strike, along with thousands of other detainees, for 28 days.

Sa’adat was among twenty detained leaders held in solitary confinement deprived from communication with the rest of the detainees, and the rest of the world. They were only allowed to see their lawyers very occasionally, and in many cases, they were denied this right.

Ahmad Sa’adat is a Palestinian refugee who has spent nearly half of his life behind bars in Israeli prisons.

In 2006, Sa’adat was abducted by Israeli troops from the Jericho Palestinian prison where he had been confined, along with several other political figures; the prison compound was guarded by American and British guards who left the compound just before Israel invaded Jericho and took the prisoners

THey were certainly indulging in terrorism when he was the head of it, and so, yes -- he was the head of a terrorist organization.

This thread reminds me what they said after they assassinate Anwar. "What 'dot' a Sadat!"

Was he charged for any terrorist crimes? What terrorist crimes was he the head of? Israel produced no crime in which he was being arrested for, was given a military trial by thee military judges with no legal training. I would agree with a fair trial.

I don't see why he should be free. He's been convicted of serious crimes. However, there are certain basic rights that even the most heinous criminals are allowed by the basic concepts of "cruel and unusual". The right to see your attorney and visitation rights with your spouse are generally honored and there doesn't seem to be any specific reason for his solitary confinement.

I can't believe I'm defending this POS but there are some basic principles of right and wrong that are expected of advanced cultures.

Yes he was: Israel sentences PFLP leader to 30 years in prison - Israel News, Ynetnews, your link is dated before Israel even took him from the Palestinians when he was imprisoned by the PA for planning the murder of Zeevi before Hamas government came to power.

Now come on, man. Get with the program. When a brave freedom fighter is oppressed by the illegal occupying zionist entity and has no recourse but resistance, how else do they secure their rights than by killing Jews?

oops, forgive me!! I didn't mean to say "killing Jews" Really, I didn't!

That was supposed to read "liquidating Zionists"


No, that still sounds a bit off.

I got it. "managing the zionist menace". That sounds better.
