Ahed al-Hendi, Editor of CAMERA’S Arabic Department, is a Syrian-born researcher who spent 40 days in prison for co-founding a prodemocracy group known as Syrian Youth for Justice. He fled Syria to Jordan in April 2007. With the help of the American Embassy in Beruit, al-Hendi was granted refugee status in the United States. His research has been published in Foreign Policy, Foreign Affairs, Wall Street Journal, Daily Beast, Huffington Post, Reuters, CNN, al-Hayat, and alMustaqbal. He has been interviewed by International and Arabic TV networks such as CNN, Bloomberg, Al Jazeera, al-Hura, France 24, and Russia Today.
