On 19 June 2025, the French Court of Appeal will convene to consider the request to release the Lebanese struggler for Palestine, Georges Ibrahim Abdallah, held as a political prisoner in French jails for 41 years, without a fair trial or legal justification, and despite being eligible for release since 1999. The four decades of his imprisonment reveal the falsehood of France’s claims of “democracy” and underline its continued colonial domination of Lebanon and its role as an imperialist power, allied with the United States and the Zionist project, the military base of imperialism in the region.
To participate in the social media campaign, “We are all Georges Abdallah”:
1 Post your photo as a prisoner or hostage (Like the example in the poster above or the photo below, ideally with a French flag) with the hashtag #كلنا_جورج_عبدالله or
#FREE_GEORGES_ABDALLAH
2 Take to the streets: take part in the marches and protest stops in front of the French embassies and consulates in cities around the world as part of the Week of Action to Free Georges Abdallah, from the Europe-wide march in Paris to events in Madrid, Barcelona, and elsewhere.
3. Hold a screening of the film “Fedayin, Georges Abdallah’s Fight” near you, which retraces his story and that of Palestine, or hold events and symposia on the case of Georges Abdallah and all prisoners of the Palestinian cause. Screenings are planned in New York, Seattle, Beirut, Vancouver and elsewhere.
Freedom and justice for Georges Ibrahim Abdallah and all revolutionary prisoners in the Zionist, French and imperialist prisons.
