(en) Britain, freedom-news: Palestinian poet Dareen Tatour convicted of ‘Facebook incitement'
Date
Tue, 8 May 2018 09:16:00 +0300
A Palestinian poet was convicted of "inciting violence" and "supporting a terrorist
organisation" on Thursday for a poem she posted on social media that the prosecution
claimed called for violence against the occupation. ---- Nazareth magistrates' court found
Dareen Tatour guilty over a poem titled "Resist, My People, Resist Them" posted on
Facebook and other posts dealing with Palestinian resistance. According to the prosecutor,
Tatour also uploaded a video on her Facebook and YouTube accounts that shows footage of
Palestinians throwing stones at the Israeli army troops, with her reading in the
background of her "Resist, My People, Resist Them" poem. Tatour's defence argued that the
poem had been misinterpreted by translators, that the content was "artistic expression"
rather than a call to violence, and that the charges ran against Tatour's freedom of
expression.
Tatour posted the poem online in October 2015. She was arrested shortly after in a 3am
police raid on her home, and spent several months in prison before being placed under
house arrest with no access to the internet. The court insisted that she be kept 40 km
away from her home because of the ‘danger' she posed to the public. Now, she is confined a
Tel Aviv flat and is facing a prison sentence of up to 8 years.
Over 300 writers, poets, translators, editors, artists, intellectuals and cultural workers
have signed the petition to free Dareen Tatour. She is one of over 400 Palestinians
arrested in recent years for their expressions of resistance to the Israeli Occupation
over social media.
