[00:07.01] | Khader Adnan grew up near Jenin City |
[00:10.06] | You could say he was a product of his time |
[00:13.14] | Ever since he was a kid he'd get arrested |
[00:16.29] | Though he was never charged with any crime |
[00:19.99] | Spending half his life in prison |
[00:22.59] | A life lived like so many of his friends |
[00:26.25] | Arbitrary and indefinite detention |
[00:29.60] | Never knowing if your jail time would end |
[00:32.20] | Khader Adnan was arrested last December |
[00:35.90] | Again he wasn't told the reason why |
[00:39.00] | He was shackled, he was beaten, he was tortured |
[00:42.30] | There beneath the Middle Eastern sky |
[00:45.50] | Perhaps there was a moment when he realized |
[00:48.20] | That right then, with his body, he'd say no |
[00:51.65] | But from then on he refused to eat another meal |
[00:55.00] | Like in Belfast not many years ago |
[01:00.00] | Khader Adnan grew up in a war zone |
[01:03.20] | But all the tanks and planes were only on one side |
[01:06.50] | It was a type of war that they call occupation |
[01:09.61] | Settlement, removal, fratricide |
[01:12.75] | And anyone who talked about resistance |
[01:15.90] | Who thought they did not deserve to be a slave |
[01:19.20] | Would be looking down the barrel of a gun |
[01:22.20] | And often find themselves inside an early grave |
[01:26.14] | Khader Adnan loves his wife and daughters |
[01:29.19] | And he likes to eat his daily bread |
[01:32.60] | But in prison he can't see his children |
[01:35.64] | Or live life with the lady that he wed |
[01:38.96] | So on behalf of all the children without fathers |
[01:42.24] | He decided he had to strike a blow |
[01:45.84] | He said I will have dignity or death |
[01:49.26] | Like in Belfast not many years ago |
[01:55.00] | Each time Khader Adnan was arrested |
[01:57.80] | In prison he would learn a little more |
[02:01.00] | And soon he became the teacher |
[02:04.58] | And he'd talk about the times that came before |
[02:07.47] | They talked about civil disobedience |
[02:10.20] | They talked about the ballot and the gun |
[02:14.00] | They talked about the Occupied Six Counties |
[02:17.30] | And the H Blocks in 1981 |
[02:20.55] | Khader Adnan talked of perseverance |
[02:23.62] | And how someday their people might be free |
[02:27.07] | How someday they might hear their children laughing |
[02:30.36] | Unafraid, how someday things could be |
[02:33.71] | And then at 3:30 on one morning |
[02:36.73] | The soldiers came, their rifles pointed low |
[02:40.45] | And they took Khader Adnan from his family |
[02:43.50] | Like in Belfast not many years ago |
[02:49.35] | They say Khader Adnan is a terrorist |
[02:52.11] | Just like they said of Bobby Sands |
[02:55.31] | Because he dares speak out against injustice |
[02:58.51] | Because he dares to make a stand |
[03:02.04] | Because he dares believe that he is human |
[03:05.05] | And he does not deserve to live this way |
[03:08.30] | Because he dares to consider an alternative |
[03:11.26] | Because he dares imagine a new day |
[03:14.93] | Khader Adnan lost his liberty before he was born |
[03:18.48] | To fight for life it's death he must embrace |
[03:21.43] | But just like others come before him |
[03:25.06] | There are others waiting to take his place |
[03:28.12] | And even the great powers can lose interest |
[03:31.43] | In supporting such a vicious status quo |
[03:34.67] | Because you can't break a man who won't be broken |
[03:38.16] | Like in Belfast not many years ago |
[03:43.55] | Like in Belfast not many years ago |
