2-yr old Palestinian released from Israeli prison!  

Written by Haitham Sabbah on 02. November 2006, 1012hrs // Part of Haitham Sabbah's adventure in Bleeding Edge, Breaking News, Human Rights, Israel, Palestine, War Crimes // Other posts by Haitham Sabbah


The attached is from our local Al-Quds newspaper on Nov 1, 2006. A story about a 2-yr old girl who was released from an Israeli prison near Ramallah. Her name is Aiysha, which in Arabic means “life.”

Aiysha’s mother gave birth to her while detained in an Israeli prison. Aiysha was released two days ago, her mother is still being detained under “Administrative Detention,” in other words, no charge, no trial, nothing…just a unilateral Israeli decision to detain her for 6 months at a time, already renewed 4 times!

This poor baby. She knows nothing in life but the walls of her mother’s prison cell. She only knows her father from visits, when they were possible. She has never seen a road, a city, grass, trees, a real bed, her own bedroom, a park, a real meal, friends, real toys, etc, etc.

I weep for this girl and pity the father as he is bound to be faced with her first question, “Where’s mom?,” and her mom, who sleeps tonight, alone.

Aiysha: 2-yr old released from Israeli prison!

May all the strength of those in solidarity with us around the world allow Aiysha to grow up without hate in her heart, and may all the Israeli soldiers that stood guard over Aiysha for the past 2-years and remained silent wake up. [Hat tip: Sam]

    [...] Although age seems to be irrelevant for Israel when it comes to the Occupied Territories as Aiysha (which in Arabic means ‘life’), a 2 year old born in an Israeli prison, has just been released in to her father’s custody as her mother stays behind under ‘administrative detention’, which technically means there are no charges and no trial; just more nothingness to ponder.

    Hello Sabbah;
    I am very deeply disturbed,& outraged by the story about the 2yr child.Why Israeli`s are allowed to get away with such inhuman acts,are something all Americans should demand that not only Bush,but the United Nations should stop,at once.I hope that you & your people realize that most people in the United States are on your side,& are not your enemies.You deserve to have your lands restored back to you,& the chance to live & raise your children in peace,& prosperty.The world that we live in today,is a horrible one, & I wish that I had the power to change it.

    Steve,

    I hope that you & your people realize that most people in the United States are on your side,& are not your enemies.

    I fully agree, understand and always say that Americans are not our enemy, but their pro-Zionist government is.

    However, I wish I can agree that most American people are on our side. In fact, that’s what I’m here for, so is hundraeds of bloggers (Arab and non-Arab) are trying to do through these blog.

    It is sad to know that majority of American people are not on the right side not because they don’t want to, but because they don’t know the truth, and blames goes on mass media and White House for lies and not being fair in presenting the situation.

    Anyway, I appreciate your optimistic perception, and hope that at least your community members are on our side. In fact, to be fair, I would not say “our side or their side”, just be fair!

    [...] Recently Israeli prison too had decided to release a 2 year old girl detainee in Israeli’s prison. The mother gave birth 2 years ago and after so long they had decided to let her free, while her mom is still detained under “Administrative Detention” (sort of like ISA-lah in Malaysia, except in Malaysia they don’t really detain pregnant mothers I think).
