In July 2004, federal agents raided the homes of five
Palestinian-American families, arresting the five dads. The first trial
of the "Holy Land Foundation Five" ended in a hung jury. The second,
marked by highly questionable procedures, resulted in very lengthy
sentences--for "supporting terrorism" by donating to charities that the
U.S. government itself and other respected international agencies had
long worked with. In 2013, human rights activist and author Miko Peled
started investigating this case. He discussed the miscarriages of
justice with the men's lawyers and heard from the men's families about
the devastating effects the case had on their lives. He also traveled to
the remote federal prison complexes where the men were held to conduct
deep interviews. Injustice traces the labyrinthine course of this
case, presenting a terrifying picture of governmental over-reach in
post-9/11 America.
