Jamil Othman Nasser (Arabic: جميل عثمان ناصر) was a Palestinian politician, leader and permanent figure.
He spent his early years in the city of Jericho in the Jordan Valley, where he received his elementary education.
During his university years in Beirut, he joined the Palestinian National Liberation Movement, Fatah, and upon his return to Palestine in the early 1970s, became a leading figure among its leadership in the occupied territories.
Nasser participated as a leading member of the "National Front" in the first free elections for the municipal councils of the cities of the West Bank held under Israeli occupation.
He was not allowed to leave the city boundaries and was supposed to report to the police station twice a day, for terms extending to six months each.
