Geraldine McNamara National PRO of Republican Sinn Fein has again condemned the Israeli administration for refusing to act in the case of Khadar Adnan the Palestinain political prisoner on hunger strike in Ofer jail for 60 days.
Today Khader Adnan has slipped into a coma and has only a short time to live.
Khadar is on hunger strike as a result of his detention without trial at the hands of the Israeli’s. He has asked to be charged or released, In his own words Khadar said “My dignity is more precious than food."
He's willing to die courageously defending it.
West Bank, Gaza, and other protesters joined Adnan's strike supportively.
Khadar has been kept in deplorable conditions and has been tortured. Throughout his detention, he has been subjected to degrading and inhuman treatment, including physical abuse, prolonged periods of interrogation, isolation and unsanitary conditions of detention.
His condition's now extremely grave. Yet prison authorities shamelessly called his health "acceptable." They found no grounds for shortening his detention or releasing him.
Sadly soon Khadar will be released from his prison hell in the same way Bobby Sands and his comrades were in 1981 in Ireland.
Too many stood idly by then and we should be ashamed that no international body has succeeded in calling on the Israeli’s to end this tragic situation.
We are told that a person is innocent until proven guilty but in Israel a person can be interned (detained) without trial as has happened in this case.
Unfortunately imperialist governments worldwide never learn from their mistakes, Khadar will become a martyr and many more will follow in his footsteps.
He is fading fast now but his strength of character will live forever.
Our prayers are with Khadar and his family at this time.
