The wife of jailed Fatah terrorist Marwan Barghouti has met with international leaders in recent weeks in an attempt to secure his release, Haaretz reported.
Fadwa Barghouti’s aim is to build support for her husband—serving several life sentences in an Israeli prison—to head the Palestinian Authority after Mahmoud Abbas, 87, either leaves office or dies. Abbas was elected in 2005 to what was supposed to be a four-year term.
