[WCUSP] Fwd: [womeninblack] Urgent protest to PM Olmert on the hunger strike of Nura Jaber elHashlamon (sent today)

Tue Jan 1 05:59:49 CST 2008

Dear Felicity,

I sent your letter out to the WILPF sisters here. I have received several 
answers of  YES. So please go ahead with signing it. I don't know how to do 
it, so if you sign for the US branches, please sign for WILPF Israel and for 
Women in Black, Tel Aviv. (Not for WiB Israel because I didn't get an OK 
from all the groups in Israel, but for the Tel Aviv vigil it's YES.) Thanks.

In love and peace,
Aliyah

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert 

Fax No. 00972 2 6546717 

28 December 2007 

Sir, 

Nura Jaber el Hashlamon of Hebron, mother of six, was arrested on 17 
September 2006 by the Israeli occupation forces. 

She has been detained without charges or trial at the Detention Centres 
of Etzion and Ashkelon. After having submitted to three tough and 
difficult interrogations, she was transferred to Hasharon Prison (Tel 
Mond) and placed in administrative detention for six months. 

Since the moment of her arrest the Israeli authorities have constantly 
prolonged her administrative detention. 

On 12 December 2007, Nur Jaber el Hashlamon began a hunger strike, 
demanding to be freed immediately and placing her life in danger. 

The husband of Nura, Muhamed Sami el Hashlamon is also in administrative 
detention. He has been imprisoned since 2005 in the Negev Prison 
(Ketziot) and, as in the administrative detention of Nura, his has 
constantly been prolonged by the Israeli authorities. 

Mr. Prime Minister, Nura's administrative detention and that of her 
husband represent an attack on the human rights of an entire family. 

The image which is thus given by the State of Israel is not that of a 
democracy but that of an occupying State which does not respect 
international law. In this crucial period where the world is looking in 
the direction of Palestine, Women in Black (Vienna), together with other 
Women in Black groups and others opposing the Israeli occupation, are 
sending your Government their request to free Nura Jaber el Hashlamon 
immediately in order to permit her to take care of her six children who 
have not seen her since more than one year. 

Yours faithfully,
