Sheikh Khader Adnan went on six hunger strikes during his 6 detentions, the most famous of which was his second strike in 13 when he announced his refusal to eat and speak in protest against his administrative detention. His wife says to Al Jazeera Net, "the influence of the Sheikh on the street is clear and people's love for him is great, so the occupation was keen to absent him administrative detention" The released prisoner, lawyer Muhammad Allan, is one of those who contracted the "confrontation" infection from Sheikh Adnan, he says.
