Summary

Description
English: Jerusalem A-19 is an airgram message sent October 24, 1978, from the United States Consulate General in Jerusalem to the United States Department of State in Washington, D.C., reporting a military trial in Ramallah, West Bank, of two young American citizens and two young Palestinians accused of throwing rocks at an Israeli military bus. A central issue in the trial was the alleged use of physical coercion by Israeli authorities to obtain confessions from the defendants. Originally classified "confidential," the airgram was declassified in 2008 and released with redactions in 2009 pursuant to a Freedom of Information Act request
