I have just received a call from Susan Barclay who is in Mikhal Prison and 
spoke to me on a phone that had been smuggled into her.
 
She told me that the guards have told her that she is going to be deported 
at 10 pm tonight but she is determined to resist to stay in the country and 
continue the struggle for a free Palestine.
 
We have contacted her lawyer and he has told her that the deportation is a 
pre-emption of the legal process and is totally illegal and that if she is in the 
country tomorrow morning she he can defend her. 
 
Susan has been working with the ISM in the city of Nablus for the past six 
months documenting Israeli war crimes against the people of Nablus and 
the surrounding villages and confronting the occupation of the West Bank 
through non-violent direct action.  Because of this she was detained and 
arrested at an Israeli military checkpoint last Thursday and has been 
served with a deportation order on the bassis that she is a security threat 
to the state of Israeli.
 
It is up to Susan now to see if she can successfully resist her deportation 
from the country but you can help her in this by contacting the Israeli 
embassy/ consulate in your part of the world and demanding that the 
Israeli authorities observe due process and that this extraordinary young 
woman be granted her day in court where she can defend herself against 
the charges that her presence in Israel and Palestine constitutes a threat to 
Israel's security.  
 
Please contact your local Israeli mission and inform them that the world is 
watching and demand that the Ministry of the Interior abort this illegal 
deportation of a non-violent humanitarian activist.
 
The contact details for Israeli Missions around the world are as follows:
 
Australia: 02 6273 1309 / 1300 
Canada: 613 567 6450 
France: 01 40 76 55 00 
Germany: 0228 934 6500

New  Zealand:  04  472 2362 / 8 
UK:  020 7957 9500 
USA: 202 364 5500

If you are an Israeli supporter of the ISM you can phone the Prime 
Minister' Office on:02 670 5555 / 10
 
The time now is 8 pm.  You have 2 hours to help save Susan from 
deportation.
