Free Palestinian politician, Khalida Jarrar

The statement below is from IfAmericansKnewBlog

Khalida Jarrar is a Palestinian Parliament member imprisoned by Israel. She has been the subject of Amnesty International campaigns and Human Rights Watch reports because Israel has repeatedly incarcerated her. 

Despite her failing health (she is suffering from multiple ischemic infarctions and hypercholesterolemia), the 57-year-old woman was thrown in jail and placed in solitary confinement.

Now she is imprisoned once again. Israel has not given her a trial or even charged her with a crime.
