He deserves a trial now!
The authorities are obviously afraid of public opinion& their support of a criminal israeli regime, which is a major cause of & stokes islamic extremisim.
His trial will highlight the murderous crimes being committed by the Israeli army in a war of apartheid, we need to demand a trial for him now at every demo.
Shame on many of these so called "defense" companies, they would soon stop if they had relatives in Gaza.
Elijah your a true folk hero!
Gaza nista

elijah has been held without trial for a decommissioning action which was done to support UN Law which Israeli is repeatedly, offensively & grosely breaking with snipers repeatedly shooting toddlers etc. I dont reccomend this kind of protest myself, but he is v brave to dismantle offensive weapons like this & from what I know wait for the police.
