Khalida Jarrar is a leftist political prisoner who has been tormented for years by Israel's apartheid authorities for her human rights work. I remember frequently passing by her protest tent in Ramallah throughout 2014, where she was resisting an order of expulsion to the hinterlands of Jericho. She subsequently spent 59 months in prison until 2021, when she was denied temporary release to attend her 31-year-old daughter's funeral. The charges Jarrar faced in the Israeli military's kangaroo courts included attending a book fair and delivering a speech "against the Israeli occupation." She was jailed again for her activism in December 2023, and placed in solitary confinement, which was clearly a form of torture. US corporate media will fixate on Jewish Israeli captives in Gaza while avoiding mention of Jarrar's name. It cannot risk informing Americans that many of the prisoners which Hamas fought to liberate are not Hamas members at all, and are behind bars purely because they resisted occupation through political organizing.
