In 1978 Sami Esmail, a 24-year-old American citizen of Palestinian descent, was prosecuted in Israel for membership in the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The case generated a great deal of interest in the US, especially in the Arab American community and at Michigan State University, where Esmail was an Electrical Engineering graduate student. Esmail flew to Israel in December 1977 to visit his dying father, who lived in Ramallah. He was arrested on his arrival at Ben-Gurion Airp
