	Mustafa Barghouti - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Barghoutis are a large extended family from the village of Deir Ghassaneh (in the Ramallah area) whose members also include imprisoned Fatah leader Marwan Barghouti, a distant cousin of Mustafa.
		In the announcement, Barghouti declared, "I will demand total and complete reform, fight any form of corruption, mismanagement, and consolidate the rule of law." [2] He was arrested by Israeli forces during the election campaign and subsequently expelled from East Jerusalem when he was going to hold an election speech there.
		Barghouti was detained on Tuesday 3 January 2006 while campaigning in the Arab quarter of East Jerusalem and was taken for questioning to a local police station.

		Popularity of Mustafa Barghouti increases in the West Bank (24%) compared to the Gaza Strip (19%), in cities (26%) compared to villages and refugee camps (20% and 19% respectively), among women (25%) compared to men (19%), and among supporters of the PFLP (65%) compared to supporters of Fateh and Hamas (10% and 32% respectively).

	Media Backspin
		When Mustafa Barghouti (pictured left) arrived at the Temple Mount on Friday, ostensibly to pray at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the Palestinian presidential candidate was instead turned away by Israeli police in front of dozens of journalists.
		Mr Barghouti, a 50-year-old academic, former communist and human-rights activist, may not be quite as charismatic as his very distant imprisoned relative Marwan, the missing candidate in the campaign which culminates in the election of a new Palestinian president tomorrow.
		We were therefore told in plenty of time that Mr Barghouti would make his way down from the Mount of Olives to the Lion's Gate to the Old City; so of course we were there in time to hear the Israeli policemen ask for orders on his walkie-talkieâ¦.
