Dear stan --
Yesterday, around the world, women again took to the the streets to say NO to the Trump agenda. Many of the marchers - in Berlin, Barcelona, New York City, Los Angels and more - carried signs demanding freedom for 16-year-old Palestinian activist, Ahed Tamimi. Ahed was arrested in the middle of the night on December 19, 2017. A few days before then, during a protest of Donald Trump’s declaration on Jerusalem, she stood up to soldiers trying to invade her home. For this, Israel intends to make an example of her.
Ahed’s military court trial on 12 charges begins January 31, the day of her 17th birthday. On January 30, the night before, across the world, we will again take to the streets.
Join us on January 30, the day before Ahed turns 17 and starts trial. Print out a poster to carry at your protest. If you live in the US, we can send you an 18x24 inch poster. Emailinfo@hebronfreedomfund.org to request this. 
Last week, the military judge ruled Ahed “too dangerous” to be released. She and her mother, Nariman, are to be remanded through trial. Israeli military court has an over 99% conviction rate. Holding Ahed violates the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, to which Israel is a signer. It is a kangaroo court of injustice.
Join us in the streets on January 30, the day before Ahed turns 17 and starts military court trial. Print out a poster to carry at your protest. If you live in the US, we can send you an 18x24 inch poster. Email info@hebronfreedomfund.org to request this. 
Having lived her entire life under occupation, and having spent the past month in military detention, Ahed’s childhood has already been stolen from her. Now, she is facing up to 10 years in prison. On January 30, we will demand freedom for Ahed, Freedom for Jerusalem, freedom for Palestine.
In solidarity with Ahed Tamimi,
Everyone at Hebron Freedom Fund and Youth Against Settlements
