Make Israel release Marwan Barghouti, the ‘Palestinian Mandela’. The future of peace in the region depends on it
Dear Donald Trump,
You still want that Nobel peace prize, right? You believe you deserve it, don’t you? Even as you send the world’s biggest warship towards Venezuela, promise to just “kill people that are bringing drugs into our country … they’re going to be, like dead”, and threaten further national guard invasions of Democratic-run cities here in the United States.
I suspect you aren’t helping your case for a Nobel right now. But I do have a suggestion for you. One that might guarantee you the hallowed peace prize that you so obviously crave in 2026.
It’s super-simple: get Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, to release 66-year-old Marwan Barghouti from prison in Israel.
