Palestinian hunger striker demands UK impose sanctions on Israel Samer Issawi, whose imprisonment has sparked West Bank protests, argues Britain must take responsibility for oppression
"A hunger-striking Palestinian prisoner whose detention without charge in Israel has sparked violent protests across the West Bank has called on the British government to force Israel to abandon its practice of administrative detention. Writing for Comment is free, Samer Issawi who was hospitalised last Wednesday evening having refused food for more than 210 days in protest at his imprisonment argues that Britain should take responsibility for its role in the genesis of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the subsequent suffering of Palestinians.
Pointing to the UK's "historic responsibility for the tragedy of my people", he says the British government should impose sanctions on Israel "until it ends the occupation, recognises Palestinian rights and frees all Palestinian political prisoners". "Israel would not dare continue its oppression of the Palestinians without the support of western governments," Issawi writes."
