Freedom for Ahed Tamimi Gothenburg will screen the film, “Killing Gaza,” at Hagabion in cooperation with Emmaus Bjorka!

As of 2018, four years have passed since Israel’s major military campaign against Gaza in the summer of 2014, under the name “Operation Protective Edge” – and the bombs are falling again over Gaza. Israel is responding to the Palestinian peaceful mass demonstrations of the Great Return March with massacres, and over 130 protesters have been murdered and 15,000 injured since the demonstrations began on 30 March.

“Killing Gaza” is a documentary by journalists Max Blumenthal and Dan Cohen, filmed during and after the Israeli attack of 2014. In the documentary, we can see both the suffering of the people caused by the Israeli military attack and the resistance it has inspired among the Palestinian people in Gaza. Learn more about the film here: https://killinggaza.com/ . The film is one hour and 37 minutes (total 97 minutes) long, it is partially written in English and contains violent scenes.

Note: Please come on time, late entry cannot be guaranteed. If you come early, you will have the opportunity to talk with other attendees.

“Free Georges Abdallah!” calls ring out in Beirut and Tunis on Bastille Day

17 July 2018

Protests in Lebanon and Tunis demanded freedom for imprisoned Arab Communist struggler for Palestine, Georges Ibrahim Abdallah, on 14 July, coinciding with Bastille Day, the French national holiday, and the appearance of the French national football team in the World Cup final. Abdallah has been imprisoned in French jails for nearly 34 years, despite being eligible for parole since 1999.

Khaled Barakat, Palestinian writer and the coordinator of the Campaign to Free Ahmad Sa’adat, issued a video calling for action by the Lebanese government and political leaders to free their citizen from French prisons:

Participants from around the world taking place in an international youth forum in Latin America issued a video in multiple languages, demanding freedom for Georges Abdallah:

In Beirut, the national campaign to free Georges Abdallah held a protest outside the residence of the French Ambassador in Lebanon on 14 July, demanding freedom for Abdallah. Large numbers of Lebanese security forces surrounded the demonstration and forced them at some distance from the building.

“We stand again, as we do every year, on the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille prison to demand the freedom of political prisoners. We demand the release of Georges Ibrahim Abdallah, a political prisoner in French prisons for 34 years,” said Khader Anwar, a spokesperson for the protesters. “We protest to coincide with what is called the victory of the French revolution. Let us recall that the French state and its successive administrations deny the real implementation of the slogans and principles of that revolution of freedom and equality.”

Anwar said, “We turn to the government in Lebanon, and we tell them that the liberation of Lebanese prisoners is your duty, a responsibility that lies on your shoulders. The sovereignty of Lebanon that you speak of is abused daily when heroes who defended their people are held in French prisons at the request of the enemy that still occupies our land. What sovereignty can you speak of as you flock to attend the celebration of France? We consider that any statement that does not include the freedom of Georges Abdallah is deficient, no matter how it affirms the right to resist occupation.”

In Tunis, protesters organized by the Tunisian Solidarity Campaign to Free Georges Abdallah marched down Avenue Habib Bourguiba to the French embassy on 14 July.

Protesters carried signs and banners calling for freedom for Georges Abdallah, Ahmad Sa’adat and Palestinian political prisoners. They gave speeches on the large, central avenue, denouncing French colonialism and demanding the freedom of the imprisoned struggler Georges Abdallah. They highlighted the links between France’s colonial crimes in the region, its current support for Zionism and the Israeli occupation in Palestine and its imprisonment of Abdallah for nearly 34 years.

Georges Abdallah, a Lebanese Arab Communist struggler for Palestine, has been imprisoned by France since he was arrested in Lyon in October 1984. After repeated delays and violations of his rights, including one of his own lawyers serving as a spy for French intelligence, he was sentenced to life imprisonment after being charged with involvement in actions in Paris in which an Israeli diplomat and a US military attaché were killed by resistance organizations in response to the ongoing Israeli invasion and attack on Beirut and Southern Lebanon.

Abdallah, who had struggled alongside the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine against Israeli invasion in 1978, was involved with the Lebanese Armed Revolutionary Factions (LARF). He has repeatedly filed for release since being eligible for parole in 1999. Despite winning approval for release in the French courts, political intervention at the highest levels of the French state, including the involvement of then US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, blocked his release.

Despite his imprisonment, he has never hesitated to support the struggles of movements around the world, including, most recently, calling for the freedom of imprisoned Turkish revolutionary Turgut Kaya, jailed in Greece. He has gone on hunger strike in support of Palestinian prisoners on multiple occasions, and Palestinian prisoners have repeatedly expressed their solidarity with him, emphasizing that his struggle is one and the same with theirs.

In a letter to Abdallah issued from Israeli prison where he is serving a 30-year sentence, Ahmad Sa’adat, the imprisoned General Secretary of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine said: “You and those who unite with you in support and solidarity, the true comrades in France, Lebanon, Palestine and all over the world, are the natural extension of those who once carried hammers, stormed the Bastille and broke into the prison walls…the extension of those who turned the cells of the Zionist occupation into revolutionary schools from which successive generations learn the meaning of will, determination and commitment…the extension of all of the forces and movements for liberation in the world who resist for true democracy and a world free of exploitation, tyranny and subjugation, where the values of social justice, liberation and dignity prevail.”

Hassan Shokeh on 45th day of hunger strike, joined by 3 more Palestinian administrative detainees

17 July 2018

Hassan Shokeh is facing a serious medical crisis on his 45th day of hunger strike against his administrative detention by Israeli occupation forces without charge or trial. He is joined on his strike by three more administrative detainees, Islam Jawarish, Issa Awad and Mahmoud Ayyad, on their 13th day of hunger strike, demanding an end to the policy of administrative detention.

The ongoing strikes come as part of an escalating campaign to end administrative detention by the over 450 Palestinians jailed without charge or trial by the Israeli occupation. First introduced to Palestine by the British colonial mandate, administrative detention has been used to arbitrarily detain tens of thousands of Palestinians since that time. Administrative detention orders are issued for one to six months at a time, but they are indefinitely renewable. Palestinians have spent years at a time jailed without charge or trial under repeatedly renewed detention orders.

Administrative detainees, who number over 450 of the total of over 6,000 Palestinian political prisoners in Israeli jails, have boycotted the Israeli military courts that rubber-stamp their detention orders since 15 February in an ongoing collective action.

Shokeh launched his hunger strike on 3 June after he was ordered to administrative detention without charge or trial rather than being released as promised in an agreement made following his hunger strike in November 2017. Shokeh, 30, has been arrested on multiple occasions and has spent a number of years jailed without charge or trial under administrative detention. Shokeh is currently held in isolation in the Ramle prison clinic as his health continues to deteriorate. Prisoners of the Islamic Jihad Movement in Ofer prison returned their meals for three days in solidarity with Shokeh’s strike.

Shokeh was seized by the Israeli occupation on 29 September 2017, only one month after he was released from Israeli jails on 31 August 2017. He launched his open hunger strike for the first time on 11 October after he was ordered to administrative detention without charge or trial. He suspended the strike on 14 November after 35 days, after his case was moved to the military courts. There, he was sentenced to six months in Israeli prison. After his sentence expired on 3 June 2018, however, he was not released but arbitrarily ordered once more to administrative detention without charge or trial.

The Palestinian Prisoners’ Society reported on 16 July that Shokeh visited with his lawyer at the Ramle clinic and moved around using a wheelchair. His lawyer said that he has lost 30 kilograms since his strike began and has severe kidney and eye pain. In addition, the lawyer said that he lost consciousness on multiple occasions during the visit. He is consuming only water during the strike and has refused to take vitamins or receive medical examinations.

Jawarish, from Aida camp; Awad, from al-Khalil; and Ayyad, from Dheisheh camp, have all been held without charge or trial under administrative detention for 18 months. They launched their strike with two other prisoners, Khader al-Dalu of Bethlehem and Salim al-Rajoub from al-Khalil, on 5 July. Al-Dalu and Rajoub suspended their strikes on 15 July after they were told that their current administrative detention orders were final and would not be renewed. These strikers are held in solitary confinement in Ofer prison, where they were moved immediately after launching their strike.

Among those held in administrative detention are two minors and Palestinian parliamentarian Khalida Jarrar, whose administrative detention was recently extended for an additional four months. Over 275 organizations around the world signed on to a collective statement calling for her immediate release and the abolition of administrative detention.

As Israel renews his administrative detention, Salah Hamouri honored in French town of Montcel

16 July 2018

The following report is based on the French original, written by the Association France Palestine Solidarité 63 (AFPS 63):

Only one week after his administrative detention without charge or trial was renewed once more by the Israeli occupation, Salah Hamouri, the French-Palestinian lawyer and political prisoner, was declared an honorary citizen of the commune of Montcel at a ceremony organized by Mayor Gregory Bonnet and the town’s city council on 6 July.

The event was attended by around 50 people and opened with a speech by the mayor. In addition,speeches were made by Christine Pires-Beaune, Member of Parliament for the constituency; Jean-Claude Lefort, coordinator of the Support Committee to Salah Hamouri and honorary member of the National Assembly; Yves Chilliard, president of the Association France Palestine Solidarité 63; and Denise Hamouri, Salah’s mother live from Jerusalem over Skype.

The event was attended by a number of elected officials in the region, including Fatima Bezli-Parret, regional councillor; Jocelyne Glace-Le Gars, departmental councillor; Clementine Raineau, departmental councillor; Jean-Marie Mouchard, president of the community of municipalities and Mayor of Loubeyrat; and Sylvain Lelièvre, mayor of St-Hilaire-la-Croix.

The ceremony was followed by a brief reception and then a film screening and discussion organized by the AFPS 63, including a presentation of the film “PALESTINE: la case prison” (Franck Salomé, 2014)

https://vimeo.com/123285481/

A rich discussion of more than two hours followed this very moving and powerful film, during which Jean-Claude Lefort spoke at further length about the situation of Palestinian political prisoners as well as Salah’s fidelity to his Palestinian roots. Lefort is Salah’s father-in-law in addition to a coordinator of his support committee.

The entire evening program was full of strong support for Salah Hamouri and his struggle and emphasized the centrality of the struggle of Palestinian political prisoners in confronting arbitrary detention, brutal conditions and mass incarceration, all part of the framework of Israeli colonialism, apartheid, ethnic cleansing and its drift into fascism. The inaction and complicity of major powers, including France, continue to give a green light to Israeli policies of continuing repression and violations of international law and human rights.

This situation emphasizes the importance of solidarity actions in support of Palestinian prisoners, such as providing information, writing to the prisoners and organizing events, like those in France in support of Salah. It also emphasizes the importance of popular mobilization for Palestine generally, especially in the context of the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement that is growing in France and internationally. The event also highlighted the alarming situation of the 2 million people trapped in Gaza, an open-air prison under siege, and called for an end to “security coordination” between the so-called Palestinian Authority and the Israeli colonial state.

Samidoun: Free Turgut Kaya! Solidarity with imprisoned Turkish revolutionary on hunger strike in Greek prisons

15 July 2018

Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network expresses its full support and solidarity for imprisoned Turkish revolutionary Turgut Kaya, on hunger strike in Greece for over 40 days against his extradition to Turkey. He was arrested in April 2018 following the issuance of an arrest warrant by Interpol at the request of the Turkish government, accused of membership in the TKP-ML (Turkish Communist Party – Marxist Leninist). Just over one month later, on 30 May, an Athens court ordered him extradited to Turkey, where he is sure to face torture and political repression.

*Khaled Barakat, international coordinator of the Campaign to Free Ahmad Sa’adat, in solidarity with Turgut Kaya*

There are thousands of political prisoners held in Turkish jails today, including journalists, lawyers and political party leaders. The legal organizations that have for years provided representation and defense for political prisoners have been themselves criminalized and attacked. Amid public rhetoric of exposing “coup supporters” and “Gulenists,” many of the targets of this widespread repression have in fact been dedicated leftists who have fought against all forms of repression in Turkey for years.

*Banner in Athens calls for Kaya’s freedom. Photo: Free Turgut Kaya campaign*

Turgut Kaya is one such activist, a revolutionary journalist who was imprisoned and tortured in Turkey on multiple occasions. In 1992, he was imprisoned for his student activism for two months; in 1994, he was imprisoned once more, accused of membership in an “illegal organization.” Upon his arrest, he was disappeared for a week and subjected to torture; however, he was then acquitted. In 1997, he was once again seized and tortured under the same charges and imprisoned for three years before being acquitted once more. In 2006, he was once again arrested and imprisoned for six more years, during which he was held in an infamous “F-Type” prison and subject to isolation before his release in 2012. Even once he arrived in Greece, he was imprisoned for 40 days in 2015 after a simultaneous arrest raid targeting Turkish activists.

*Charlotte Kates, international coordinator of Samidoun, in solidarity with Turgut Kaya*

The repression targeting Turkish and Kurdish leftists and revolutionaries has been echoed throughout Europe, where people involved in labor organizing, writing and community work – even concert organizing and cultural activities – have been targeted for criminalization, arrest and imprisonment. As in the case of Gulaferit Unsal in Germany, even after these prisoners win their release, often after years in prison, they continue to face political repression including bans on associating with Turkish community associations or leftist parties.

Georges Ibrahim Abdallah, the Lebanese Communist struggler for Palestine who has been imprisoned for nearly 34 years in French prisons, also expressed his support for Turgut Kaya during a visit, noting that he “stands in solidarity with Turgut Kaya in his struggle for freedom and calls for the liberation of all revolutionary prisoners in Greece, Turkey and elsewhere.”

*Samar Najjar of the Campaign to Free Georges Abdallah in Lebanon, in solidarity with Turgut Kaya.*

The Greek government has actively sought to escalate its cooperation with the Israeli occupation at the expense of the Palestinian people through both joint military exercises and the development of the “EastMed” pipeline for trafficking in stolen Palestinian natural gas. It is deeply involved in this repression hand in hand with its NATO partner, Turkey, and the European Union states who impose austerity upon the Greek people. Even the protests in support of Turgut Kaya have faced repression and banning at the hands of the Greek state and the SYRIZA-ANEL government.

The imprisonment of Turgut Kaya comes amid a range of repressive attacks on Turkish and Kurdish movements across Europe, including the imprisonment of organizers in Germany and elsewhere under the same types of “anti-terror laws” that are used to suppress Palestinian diaspora organizing and struggle.

His case is also not the only such case in Greece; 9 Turkish activists were seized by Greek police on 28 November 2017 and imprisoned, accused of being associated with the DHKP-C (Revolutionary People’s Liberation Party-Front). One of these nine imprisoned activists is Ali Ercan Gokoglou, actively involved with Tayad, an organization that works to support political prisoners in Turkey.

*Palestinian organizer in Gaza with the PFLP Information Centre calls for freedom for Turgut Kaya*

We also express our solidarity with all other political prisoners in Greek jails, including Greek revolutionaries, anarchists and others, who have also repeatedly shown their support for Palestinian political prisoners in their struggle for freedom. The Greek revolutionary prisoners have engaged in hunger strikes and ongoing struggles inside the prisons to demand their most basic rights.

Organizers in Greece and around the world have been mobilizing to support Turgut Kaya and his fellow political prisoners and to demand their freedom. Demonstrations were organized on Kaya’s 40th day of hunger strike in Toulouse, London, Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Dusseldorf, Athens, Brussels, Vienna, Bern, Munich and elsewhere.

In Athens, activists took to the underground Metro to distribute information about the case to passengers. They have also maintained a strong presence in Syntagma Square and elsewhere in the city in support of Kaya:

Turgut Kaya’s hunger strike is continuing; he was hospitalized on his 41st day of hunger strike. As among Palestinian prisoners, there is a strong tradition of hunger strikes among Turkish revolutionary prisoners, whether imprisoned in Turkey or in international jails. Indeed, Turkish prisoners themselves went on a three-day hunger strike to demand his release.

Turgut Kaya faces further torture and political imprisonment if he is extradited to Turkey. Instead, he must be released and the “anti-terror” prosecutions targeting activists across Europe must come to an end. Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network urges supporters to participate in the actions at the Free Turgut Kaya campaign page, including the following:

Make a solidarity statement – write your own statement and send it to the Free Turgut Kaya campaign.

15 July, Berlin: Resistance is Not Terrorism! The Effects of Section 129 a/b and the Case of Gulaferit Unsal

Year after year, the state’s repression comes down more harshly against revolutionary ideas and the left, as reflected in the use of Section 129 (a/b) (so-called anti-terror laws) to criminalize activism. If you think that major incidents must take place in order for these paragraphs to be used, this is a false impression. Self-organized, left-wing and radical left groups and organizations are to the state a thorn in the eye. It tries to defame activists as criminals and terrorists, to depoliticize the resistance and discourage the population from associating with them. Whether organizing antifascist sport clubs, organizing or attending concerts, left events, demonstrations and camps – all of these can be used as a reason for repression.

Political activists are criminalized and labeled as terrorists, disenfranchised, dehumanized and sometimes imprisoned for over 6 years. But even after their detention ends, the repression continues – surveillance, isolation and state harassment are on the agenda for those affected.

Migrants are hit particularly hard by these provisions. Not only do they represent the largest group of 129 (a/b) victims, but they are subjected to additional residency-related repression.

We demand:
Stop the inhumane conditions of detention, such as isolation!
Solidarity with the prisoners!
No extraditions to other states!
Stop the overturn of people’s right to remain and access state benefits! Full citizenship and civil rights for all!
For the legalization of all left and progressive organizations!
Down with sections 129 (a/b)! Freedom for all political prisoners!

Jahr für Jahr geht der Staat mit seiner Repression härter gegen revolutionäre Ideen und Linke vor. Wenn du denkst, dass viel
dafür passieren muss, um mit diesen Paragraphen bestraft zu werden liegst du leider falsch. Selbstorganisierte, linke und linskradikale Gruppen und Vereine sind dem Staat ein Dorn im Auge. Er versucht Aktivist_Innen als Kriminelle und Terroristen zu diffamieren, ihren Widerstand zu entpolitisieren und drängt die Bevölkerung sich von diesen zu entsolidarisieren. Ob antifaschistische Sportvereine, das Organisieren oder Besuchen von Konzerten, linken Veranstaltungen, Demonstrationen und Camps – all das kann als Anlass für ein solches Verfahren genommen werden.

Politische Aktivist_Innen werden kriminalisiert und als Terroristen bezeichnet, entrechtet, entmenschlicht und teilweise über 6 Jahre eingesperrt. Doch auch nach der Haft geht die Repression weiter: Überwachung, Isolation und staatliche Schikanen stehen für die Betroffenen an der Tagesordnung. Diese Menschen werden aller Rechte beraubt, weil sie sich für eine Welt einsetzen, in der diese Unterdrückung keinen Platz hat.
Migrant*innen sind von diesem Paragraphen besonders hart getroffen. Nicht nur dass sie die größte Gruppe der129 a/b Betroffenen darstellen, auch die damit verbundenen aufenthaltsrechtlichen Repressionen kommen noch hinzu.

Wir fordern:
Schluss mit den unmenschlichen Haftbedingungen wie Isolation!
Solidarität mit den Gefangenen!
Keine Auslieferungen an andere Staaten!
Schluss mit dem Entzug von Bleiberecht und staatlichen Geldern! Volle
Staatsbürger_Innenrechte für alle!
Für die Legalisierung aller linken und fortschrittlichen
Organisationen!
Weg mit den Paragraphen 129 a/b! Freiheit für alle politischen
Gefangenen!
