'''Abdullah Ghaleb Barghouti'''<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.aljazeera.net/news/reportsandinterviews/2009/12/27/عبدالله-البرغوثي-الإبعاد-أو-السجن|title=عبدالله البرغوثي...الإبعاد أو السجن|website=aljazeera.net}}</ref> ({{lang-ar|عبد الله البرغوثي}}, born 1979) is a [[Palestinian people|Palestinian]] leading commander in [[Hamas]]' armed wing, the [[Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades]], in the [[West Bank]]. He was also one of the organization's chief bomb makers. Barghouti is currently serving 67 life-term sentences in [[Israel]]i prison.<ref name="McElroy"/>

==Early life==
Barghouti hails from the [[Barghouti]] clan based in the [[Ramallah]] area of the West Bank. His family is from the town of [[Beit Rima]]. Barghouti was born in [[Kuwait]] in 1979. He is a relative of [[Marwan Barghouti]].<ref name=roffe>{{cite news|last=Roffe -Ofir|first=Sharon|title=Abdullah Barghouti: I will keep fighting occupation|url=http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3858938,00.html|accessdate=18 November 2012|newspaper=Ynet News|date=3 July 2010}}</ref>

==Hamas==
In 1999, Barghouti traveled to the West Bank where he joined the Hamas paramilitary group.<ref name="McElroy">McElroy, Damien. [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/israel/8831908/Gilad-Shalit-release-5-most-prominent-Palestinian-prisoners-to-be-freed.html#disqus_thread Gilad Shalit release: 5 most prominent Palestinian prisoners to be freed]. ''[[The Daily Telegraph]].'' 18 October 2011.</ref> He is considered by ''[[Ynet]]'' as Hamas' "engineer",<ref name=roffe/> and designed and built weapons for numerous attacks against Israeli civilians. Among the attacks he was involved in was the [[Sbarro restaurant suicide bombing]], the double suicide bombing in the Ben Yehuda pedestrian mall, the [[Café Moment bombing]], the [[2002 Rishon LeZion bombing]], the [[Hebrew University bombing]], the [[Allenby Street bus bombing]], the [[Pi Glilot bombing attempt]], and an attack on railway tracks in [[Lod]] in which he personally laid the explosive charge. A total of 66 Israelis were killed and 500 injured in attacks that Barghouti was involved in.

In late 2001, Barghouti was arrested by the [[Preventive Security Force]]s of the [[Palestinian Authority]] on late Palestinian President [[Yasser Arafat]]'s orders over involvement in the Sbarro restaurant bombing.<ref>Philps, Alan. [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/israel/1337289/Suicide-bomber-blows-up-cafe.html Suicide bomber blows up cafe]. ''[[The Daily Telegraph]]''. 13 August 2001.</ref> Following a deterioration in relations between the PA and Israel in January 2002, [[Fatah]] leader [[Marwan Barghouti]] lobbied [[Jibril Rajoub]], chief of the PA security forces, to release Abdullah Barghouti. He returned to Hamas activities.

==Imprisonment==
Barghouti was arrested by the Israeli [[Shin Bet]] security service in March 2003. An Israeli military court sentenced him to 67 life terms<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.mfa.gov.il/mfa/foreignpolicy/terrorism/palestinian/pages/abdallah%20barghouti%20sentenced%20to%2067%20life%20sentences%201-dec-2004.aspx| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20141215012407/http://www.mfa.gov.il/mfa/foreignpolicy/terrorism/palestinian/pages/abdallah%20barghouti%20sentenced%20to%2067%20life%20sentences%201-dec-2004.aspx| archive-date = 2014-12-15| title = Abdallah Barghouti sentenced to 67 life sentences}} </ref> plus 5,200 years in prison. The sentence was the longest given out in Israel's history. Barghouti is incarcerated at Gilboa Prison near [[Beit She'an]]. He is held in solitary confinement and is not allowed family visits.<ref>Levinson, Chaim.

The Israeli government refused to release Barghouti as part of the 2011 [[Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange]].<ref name="Koopmans">{{cite news|last1=Koopmans|first1=Ofira|title=Marwan Barghouti not to be released, Israeli minister says|publisher=McClatchy - Tribune Business News|date=12 October 2011|id={{ProQuest|897162113}}}}</ref> The Palestinian Authority has paid Barghouti a pension throughout his imprisonment.<ref>https://www.makorrishon.co.il/nrg/online/1/ART2/729/186.html</ref>
