بتعرفوا شو يعني 79 يوم ؟؟؟؟ أكيد بتعرفوا ..!!
بس بتعرفوا شو يعني الــجـــوع لمدة 79 يــــوم ؟؟؟ أكيد ما بتعرفوا ,,!!
و أكيد الأســيــر مــحمـود ســرســك بيعرف ..
Знаете ли какво са 79 дни??? Със сигурност знаете!
А знаете ли какво е глад в продължение на 79 дни??? Сус сигурност не знаете!
Той обаче със сигурност знае - Махмуд Сарсак - палестински пленник в израелски ръце!
Ако беше израелски войник, пленен в униформа от военната му позиция, досега светът да е проглушал от крясъци за свободата му...но той е само един палестинец, чийто живот няма цена. ХасбунаАллах уа ниамал-уакил!

An estimated 2,000
Palestinian prisoners and detainees went on hunger strike protesting prison
conditions,isolation, denial of family visits
and detention without trial. Under the Egyptian-brokered deal of 14 May, Israelagreed to end the solitary confinement of 19 prisoners –
held in isolation for up to 10 years – and to lift a ban onfamily visits for prisoners from the Gaza
Strip, among other things. Further negotiations reportedly led to anagreement that administrative detention orders of
current detainees will not be renewed unless significant newintelligence information is presented. At the end of April 2012, some 308 Palestinians were held as administrativedetainees according to IPS statistics. Some are
held as prisoners of conscience, held solely for their peacefulexercise of their rights to freedom of expression, association or assembly. Administrative detention orders arebased on secret information which is not
disclosed to the detainees or their lawyers, denying detainees theopportunity to effectively exercise their right to mount
a legal challenge.
