Description
The Holy Land Foundation Five: A Story of Injustice In 2004, five Palestinian-American men were arrested and charged with supporting terrorism. Despite being part of respected charities that worked closely with the US government and international agencies, they received lengthy sentences for their alleged crimes. Miko Peled's investigation into this case reveals a disturbing pattern of governmental overreach in post-9/11 America. Through deep interviews with the men's lawyers and family members, as well as his own visits to the remote federal prison complexes where they were held, Peled sheds light on the miscarriages of justice that occurred. This book provides a chilling account of how the US government's actions can have devastating consequences for individuals and their families.
