== Diplomatic immunity as a member of the Palestinian Parliament==
== capture or arrest?==
This part does not make sense, a country may choose to give diplomatic immunity to someone, generally its only for foreign affairs although not always but I can find no record that Israel has ever agreed to give diplomatic immunity in relation to the Palestinian Parliament furthermore other members of the Palestinian Parliament have been arrested and no-one brought this up. What it is, is he may have diplomatic immunity from arrest and prosecution from the PA.
"Arrest" is the israeli line. However, Marwan Barghouti was CAPTURED in ramalla. Israel has no right of arrest within the Occupied territories. It's like saying the New York Police Department "arrested" a russian member of parliament in MOSCOW.

If I was like you zionists, I would change it to "kidnap". Whenever someone captures an israeli soldier you zionists call it "kidnap" right? So it's only fair this is called a "kidnapping". However, I know it should stay as "captured" because I, unlike you, have some objectivity.

I should probably explain why I reverted this article yesterday, and why I've added a sentence now.

The article currently reads, "He is currently serving five life sentences in an Israeli jail for murder and attempted murder." This statement is both accurate and NPOV. The phrase "Murder and attempted murder" refers to a legal conviction -- it makes no comment on the accuracy of the charges, nor on the validity of the legal process under which the trial occurred.

The word "allegedly" is pretty obviously POV in this context; it needed to be removed, as such.

That said, it is also my position that the article's introduction should make reference to the controversial nature of Barghouti's prison sentence. To this end, I have added the statement "Barghouti's supporters believe that these charges were politically motivated, and consider him a ]". This statement, like the one before it, is NPOV -- it makes no comment on the accuracy of these claims, and merely notes that they have been raised in the field of public discourse.

If anyone believes this to be flawed logic, I'm willing to entertain objections. ] 22:39, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)

:: Of course his supporters deny everything. No Palestinian ever did anything. But I respect your NPOV dedication, but you left out the number of dead. I believe it was 28. ] 06:28, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

:: supporters means fellow terrorists and I don't think one should take it too seriously. I've addred the Israeli claim which was backed by public evidence. ]

::: Do you have any evidence that "supporters means fellow terrorists"? The government of Israel's claims can be referenced in the main body of the article, but it doesn't belong in the intro. ] 06:20, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
