Dear brother,
as a member of the Palestine Solidarirty Campaign I have heard to-day about your hunger-strike. The action you have taken to highlight the inhumane and illegal detention of Palestinians by the state of Israel is to be applauded. I hope your action raises the profile of this injustice across the world. My prayers go out to you to-day. May your courage bring justice for you and your fellow Palestinians. May you live through your ordeal and see the good resulting from your actions. May God bless you and keep you strong, yours in solidarity Paul (U.K.)
Khader Adnan, let it be known that it is your willpower, your courage, and your determination to defy injustice that has sparked Palestine's beacon of hope. Very few people can move the world the way you've done and the fact that you've done it all, selflessly of course, for a people deprived of their human rights and self-sovereignty makes you all the more spectacular. You are a role model and if I could do just one percent of what you've accomplished, I would be content with myself.
I will take the liberty of speaking on behalf of myself, my community, my city, and my people and say that you, Khader Adnan, will forever be recognized as a primary reason for the collapse of the occupation and an end to the apartheid and racism on which Israel has institutionalized its very existence. With the grace of God, your sixty-six days of power have proven to be stronger than anything Israel could literally and figuratively throw at you. You are a living symbol of just how strong the Palestinian composure truly is.
I hope to meet you one day. In a free Palestine, we will cross paths and I will shake your hand with gratitude for managing to revive in me a sense of hope for Palestine. Thank you, and thank your wife, your family, and your friends for teaching us how to appreciate our heroes.

Okay, I want to go to Palestine and wait in the line to shake Khader Adnan's hand next summer. I’ve never touched such greatness. I want to see him with my own eyes. He’s the reason for the new compassion for the Palestinian cause. I want to shower his new baby with hearts and presents. Want to smile at his wife. Want to hear his daughters laugh.

Brother Khader,
I want you to know that your non-violent act of refusing food has given more attention to the plight of thousands of your brothers and sisters who are political prisoners who are never charged and spend much of their lives in jail. You did not suffer in vain. You bring pride to Palestinians all over the world. Your act is an act of courage and dignity. I will pray for you, your family, for all of our brothers and sisters in jail, and for a free Palestine.
الله معك يا أخي
Sincerely,
A Palestinian-American
]]>To the Adnan Family,
your struggle has proven that there is justice. There is justice even when it seems smaller than a speck of sand swirling around in the air. Yor steadfastness, determination and will to show the world that Palestine is well & alive. You chose the path of non-violence and you won. You chose the hardest path in the face of occupation and discrimination- but your path led you to victory.
I hope to see many more victories for Palestine as you have embodied Khader. I hope to see all Palestinians, young & old stand up and take the path of non-violence, because in the end it will be the peaceful that will win this fight.
I am sending all my love, from the bottom of my heart to your entire family and to all of Palestine. In Palestine hope is the first to fight and the last to die, and you khader have shown that hope & determination are the beating heart of Palestine.
Much love, hugs, and kisses for all of Palestine.
Tonight the stars shine just for you.
