The Palestinian Authority (PA) has urged Israel to cancel a
controversial law that it uses to hold prisoners without a trial.

Israel also uses the law to keep prisoners in jail after
their terms are over.
The PA "has raised this issue before international circles
and human rights groups and resorted to the Israeli courts
to drop the law, but the efforts were fruitless,",
Palestinian Minister of Prisoners Affairs Eissa Qaraqe told
Xinhua on Saturday.
This law "violates the Palestinian prisoners' rights and
their human values," he added.
Israel has ratified the "illegal warrior law" in 2002 and
applied it to Palestinians held in its prisons.
"Those prisoners are deprived of getting any aid from rights
organizations and their families are not allowed to visit
them," he said.
Abdul Nasser Ferwana, a Palestinian prisoner rights activist
says Israel had arrested about 1,000 Palestinians during its
offensive against the Gaza Strip last year.

A government, of Israel, by Israel, and, for: Israel.
But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light:
for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. The light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not. The light of the body is the eye:
if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead,
and Christ shall give thee light. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
