A targeted individual activist has been disappeared by intelligence operatives.
On Monday May 5th, 2014, Amer Jubran was arrested by the secret intelligence agency of the Jordanian government, the Mukhabarat, in the middle of the night.
He has not been allowed any contact with a lawyer and no one knows where he is being held.
Intelligence cooperation between Jordan, the United States, and Israel in their attempt to silence dissent and eliminate political support for resistance to the American-Zionist project in the region is blamed for Jubran’s disappearance.
Amer, a Palestinian political activist, opposed warmaking policies of the United States and Israel during his 18 year residence in the United States.
Shortly after September 2001, he was harassed by US authorities, detained, and finally pushed out of the country. (See http://www.amerjubrandefense.org, http://www.onepalestine.org ) .
Amer returned to Jordan, his first country of exile, in 2004.
“This latest arrest is a continuation of the political repression Amer experienced in the United States,” says Popular Resistance on its website.

That’s funny because “Palestinians” are in fact displaced Jordanians via Arafat.
