Washington, DC - The U.S. Supreme Court entered an order declining the appeal of the Holy Land Five, Oct. 29. This rejection comes with no explanation. The judicial appeal process ends here, but the struggle to free the Holy Land Five continues.

Join author Noor Elashi and the Committee to Stop FBI Repression in a national day of action on Thursday, October 25, 2012. Noor Elashi is daughter of U.S. political prisoner and Holy Land Five leader Ghassan Elashi. Now is the time to act for freedom! Justice for the Holy Land Five!
The first Holy Land trial ended in a hung jury, but a second one -- using secret witnesses who were never identified to the defense, hearsay evidence and a ‘shock video’ showing protesters in Palestine burning an American flag -- contributed to prejudicing the jurors. The result is that five men, who did nothing wrong, are suffering long sentences, between 15 and 65 years.
The lead prosecutor who used these dirty tricks in court is Barry Jonas. Assistant U.S. Attorney Barry Jonas is now in Chicago, conducting the ongoing investigation of 23 Midwest anti-war and international solidarity activists. Jonas is a pro-Israel ideologue, politically motivated and willing to trample on people’s rights.
