A US extradition request has led to the arrest in Spain of James “Fergie” Chambers, a US multi-millionaire and pro-Palestinian donor. Irish reporting says he lived in Dublin during the past year before being detained on the Spanish island of Ibiza after the arrest warrant. US authorities allege he provided material support to Hamas, a group designated a terrorist organization by Washington, through international money-laundering allegations. Spain’s courts will consider the extradition request, while lawmakers and rights advocates warn it could widen pressure on pro-Palestinian solidarity abroad.
