"Historical Injustice and Madness of the Highest Orders
the Illegal Incarceration of the Palestinian People (Naji Mujahid)

On Monday morning Israeli border guards denied the American citizens Dhoruba Bin Wahad and Naji Mujahid entry into Palestine. The two Americans were travelling from Amman in Jordan via the Allenby Bridge located at the border between Jordan and the Palestinian West Bank.The trip to Jordan and the West Bank is "normally" quite a long and tiresome undertaking so even much worse for radical Palestinian Human Rights Activists, meanwhile mainstream media and liberal politicians are boasting over their "bravery"daring a visit to the "dangerous" occupied Palestinian territories, without problem are passing ahead foreign more radical Palestinian activists and the long lines of Palestinian workers and students, some waiting in lines days and nights at Israeli checkpoints.
Invited to participate in a conference in Jericho on the topic of Palestinian political prisoners illegally incarcerated in Israeli jails, the two Americans,Dhoruba Bin Wahad, a leader of the Black Panter Party and Naji Mujahid a law student and civil rights activist based in Washington , was ill treated by Israeli border guards.Then interrogated, strip searched,had their belongings rummaged then confiscated and ordered to return back to Jordan. Humiliated and frustrated after the denial of entry to Palestine, the two US citizens and human rights activist walked up to the consular facility of the Palestinian Authorities in Amman.

Not knowing about that the consular and juridical adviser at the Palestinian Authority office in Amman has no diplomatic status or formal authority to enforce laws in Jordan, they were told they can not expect from the PA office in Amman, any help to enter the West Bank.The security of Jordanian border control is actually a matter between Mukhabarat el-Aama, Jordans General Intelligence Directorate, GID,s head quarter in Amman and CIA.(Gid has surpassed the Israelis Mossad as America's most effective allied counter-terrorism agency in the Middle East. Jordan's intelligence partnership with the U.S. is so close, in fact, that the CIA has had technical personnel "virtually embedded" at GID headquarters in Amman).

"The Israelis did not deny entry into the West Bank on grounds of security reasons, Bin Wahad stated in a video cast yesterday - " ultimately we were barred because of ideological reasons".Bin Wahad was him self a political prisoner incarcerated in a US jail, the judgement against him was overturned after 19 years in prison, for a crime he never committed. In their statement the Americans said that the treatment of them is a mirror of - " The Israelis policy of forcing the Palestinians out of their homeland, through illegal land confiscation and settlement-building,the checkpoints, the Judaization of Jerusalem, and the enactment of discriminatory laws against Palestinians, in the 1948 occupied area of Palestine. It also reflect the Israelis continued denial of the right to return for over seven million Palestinian refugees in exile."

The Israelis actions prevented important meetings between former American and Palestinian political prisoners, as well as disrupting media coverage that both Dhoruba and Naji had arranged to provide for the African American community news outlets about the conference, focused on Palestinian political prisoners and the Palestinian struggle for liberation.

_______________

Dear Dhoruba Bin Wahad and Naji Mujahid I am so sad to know about your predicament,you did not make it to Jericho, but you will earn the media coverage, your presence in Jericho was important and highly anticipated.

You statement of yesterday expressed analytical sharpness.

"There is a criminalisation of the truth and the legalisation of lies in this decennial"
"The Palestinians are vilified of their right to struggle"
and "The criminal state of Israel is its own worse enemy"

At last .. there roared a hurricane of passion and fury, brought a fresh wind of progress and intelligence into Palestinian political arena and Palestinian activism - the latter hijacked by a local and international mediocre qualmy petit bourgeois. The result: tens of thousands Palestinian political prisoners are suffering mighty in Israeli jails, thousands of Palestinian freedom fighters tortured by their own people in dark and cold dungeons on the West Bank, loss of precious Palestinian lives, loss of land and possessions.
