Palestinian hunger strike leader Barghouti 'filmed eating' |
2017-05-08 |
![]() The service said Marwan Barghouti had been filmed consuming cookies in secret on 27 April and a snack bar on 5 May. It did not say how he obtained the food, but sources told the Haaretz newspaper that he had been set up. Barghouti's wife said the footage was "fake" and intended to break the morale of the hunger strike's participants. More than 890 prisoners have been refusing food since 17 April in protest at conditions in Israeli jails. They have issued a list of demands including better medical services, more frequent family visits and an end to detention without trial. |

#4 Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. I make it a habit to eat at least once, and usually more often, every day. |
