2:31 am
returned to his family after five years held captive by hamas and dozens of former palestinian prisoners have been flown to exile to countries like qatar and turkey while hundreds of others have been returned to the west bank. there are still thousands of other palestinians remaining in jail up next r.t. speaks with the wife of a high profile a prisoner considered a terrorist by israel but a hero to palestinians. he is regarded by many as the palestinian also mandela while on barghouti who is currently in an israeli prison where he's been for nearly a decade he's serving five life sentences for murdering five israelis and over the years his release has been one of the major stumbling blocks in the gilad shalit prisoner exchange deal with me to discuss this is his wife fired were fired what the israelis always said that they would not release prisoners with blood on their hands but now they are releasing prisoners who have killed israelis but they're not releasing your husband why do you think not. it's
2:32 am
a political issue his judgement and sentencing in israeli court was all political the israelis put him in jail because he's a leader of the palestinian people and the israelis don't want there to be a palestinian leaders he's a symbol of unity between palestinians the israelis are afraid to release him because he can bring about reconciliation between hamas and fatah many people feel that hamas was almost happy to abandon your husband because he poses serious political competition to the hamas leadership what do you think. which of course a leader like marwan barghouti is very popular in palestine and the arab world a lot of people have been phoning me to protest that he's not part of this deal i think it's israel who don't want him out of the jail hamas only accepted the deal at the last minute why do you think hamas accepted the deal you know. i don't know the main reason why hamas accepted a deal without marwan no one here in palestine understands it but hamas was under
2:33 am
pressure from the israeli side khaled mashal harasses political bureau chief promised you that there would be no deal without marwan do you feel betrayed. right now i'm confused about my feelings because i'm not happy about marwan but i'm very happy for all of the prisoners and their families and as a mother i'm thrilled because all these prisoners have a mother. it's and i know how they feel having their sons and fathers in jail in the last ten years since marwan was imprisoned i have traveled all over the world and advocated for the rights of prisoners so i'm happy and i'm not happy do you think that this was the last chance for marwan to be free. from the moment the israelis kidnapped my husband i never lost hope that one day he would come out of that jail and i'll never lose their scope for marwan and for all of the prisoners marwan is a great leader and the palestinians will continue to fight for him to be released president abbas will not negotiate with the israelis and lastly free our leaders
2:34 am
and understanding you right that they can never be real peace between israelis and palestinians as long as no one is in jail. which yes that's right and it's what president abbas said at the united nations he said that peace will never be reached between israelis and palestinians until all prisoners are released marwan among the negotiations between israel and palestine start again the fate of the prisoners will be at the top of the agenda because there can be no peace without releasing all of the prisoners you argue that the israelis see him as a great leader and for this reason and don't want to release him but call the opposite also be true that because he is a great leader he has the power to unify palestinians and he would be a great partner for peace for the israelis. israel is not ready for a real peace they talk about peace but they don't work toward peace because of this they don't want marwan out of jail if he was released there could be
2:35 am
a real chance for peace israelis are still building the separation wall there still demolishing houses demolishing olive trees imprisoning people building new settlements if you look at all of this you'll see that israel is not ready for a real peace why do you think israelis agreed to the deal especially the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu who. yes it was the pressure from inside israel that made netanyahu agree surveys show that most israelis want charlie to come home but netanyahu also has a political crisis to deal with and this is a way to score points he's only looking out for the israeli people and not for anyone else also when you look at israeli society when you really want something you can pressure the government into giving it a good pressure netanyahu to make this deal but it's not pressuring him to make peace i say it again israelis do not want peace if they really did big pressure netanyahu to make a real and just one. four years this deal has been delayed over the question of
2:36 am
releasing five high profile prisoners among them your husband so why now what is significant in the timing that's for the still being agreed to now. as palestinians no one's telling us the real reasons why the deal was made so quickly and why now we're surprised to see how it was done and what was agreed to i think both sides made concessions by commas who said before they never make a deal without marwan barghouti to do you think the arab spring played a role that egypt needed to reassert itself as a power and that hamas and egypt are growing closer yes of course the arab spring played a very big part in making this deal happen egypt wants to play a role they sponsored all the details of the deal and mediated between both sides i think the arab spring was the most important influence on the deal over the past three months but hamas always said the release of marwan was a red line for that they would never agree to
2:37 am
a deal without him it's still confusing why the deal's been done without him and other important leaders being a part of it do you blame israel or do you blame hamas. but hamas to the maximum it could do also this is the maximum a can achieve from the deal we know as palestinians how israel deals with things for ten years we've known that marwan would not be released from prison without. real settlement in place does your husband know about this deal and that he's not part of it. what we know from the lawyer who visited marwan is that marwan did not know anything about the deal before the media and the extent he wasn't aware of any of the details no one told him anything i have not visited him since the negotiations between israel and hamas began i was supposed to visit him but because of israeli fears they canceled the visit so i will only see him in about a week or two lawyer told me his morale was good he's doing his daily exercises and he supports all the prisoners who are part of this deal this deal will not change
2:38 am
his morale marwan continues to fight for the freedom of palestinians and for us to live with integrity in our own country for ten years israel has been trying to isolate him for three years he was in solitary confinement but palestinians still need marwan he's in their minds and feelings so israel cannot isolate him they might have his body but his mind and his song are with the palestinian people so you got engaged to marwan when he was behind bars in fact he got his parents to ask you for your hand in marriage how difficult is it being married to him which it hasn't been easy we have four children three sons and a daughter marwan was put in jail when the children were small and i've had to carry all of the responsibility as a mother i faced all these pressures in the home but they are not my only do this if they were it would be easier i'm also a lawyer i have an office i advocate for prisoner right when you asked did you see him and what did he tell you what did the two of you talk about. for the first four
2:39 am
years in jail i was forbidden to visit him now i go as much as the israelis will allow me to the last visit was two weeks ago always when i go to visit him i see him through a wall of glass and i use a phone to talk to him so each visit is forty five minutes which goes very fast so we prepare a. yes but we never have enough time to talk about everything for the first fifteen minutes we talk about the children their issues family things then the next fifteen minutes we talk about the political situation and the palestinian people or the situation with fatah during the last fifteen minutes he gives me a lot of advice a lot of things to do people to talk to. we have to do it in this way because he's not only a family man he's also a palestinian leader and you've spoken a lot about the whites of palestinian prisoners what are the conditions like for your husband and other palestinians who are being held in israeli jails. and
2:40 am
in the last five years since she was kidnapped israel did a lot of things to harm the prisoners and make their lives more on their own. the prisoners of course protested they stop eating stop drinking and many have died over the years protesting against conditions inside the prisons. they won rights such as the right to education or food cleanliness medical treatment but netanyahu took all of these achievements away he put the prisoners in solitary confinement a small room which is also the bathroom with lots of rats it's about one point five by two meters so imagine living for years in this room with all the rats and bugs my husband had if well what about the team was released tomorrow what would he do now i. don't know but with marwan has been struggling for thirty five years he's never taken a day's holiday if he was released he would not stop struggling for palestinian rights but the first thing he do is be with his family and childre who wants to
2:41 am
apologize to his children because he wasn't there for them in their teenage years he wants to take care of them and compensate for the years they missed out not having a father around. after that he'd have a lot of duty fighting for freedom for justice and building an independent palestinian state do you think the day will come when you will be the wife of a president. as a wife. mother the most important thing i want is a husband and a father i don't care about being the wife of a president all i want is my husband back she said well thank you very much for joining us here on all thank you. from the days of the manhattan project nine hundred forty two the university of california has been involved through the science of its provision and scientists

2:48 am
moment. everything can happen in this group also for the first place. but you know that. to be. in fifteen days or. probably there. will be a very important game for us and. also because for maybe not really good team they play for the more very well known group see manchester united beat us into the caress playing rooney scoring two penalties to give his side best the champions league win this season united and i second in that group behind benfica f.c. basel saying no. real madrid just can't stop winning keeping the one hundred percent record in creating the four nil thumping of leon it means reality the group by five point three i actually think it's an homage to grab the jersey ring it was quick to point out it's not an easy trick. of the hoops.
