Movement Is A Human Right (Unless You're From Gaza)

[Billo_Really]

"Having the right to move means that you have the choice, possibility and right to move from A to B at any time and for any reason. The right to movement is a basic human right as stipulated in Article 13 of the UN Human Rights Charter."​

Protecting your borders is one thing, but restricting the freedom of movement on land that isn't yours, is definately something else!

Israel has refused to grant permission to 26 runners from the Gaza Strip - including Olympic runner Nader al-Masri - to travel to the West Bank for Sunday's first-ever “Right to Movement Palestine Marathon,” scheduled to start and end in Bethlehem and run through at least two refugee camps. The race was organized by the non-profit Right to Movement, which "aims to move things and people (and) focus on the basic right of freedom of movement" – this time, in Palestine, where restriction on movement is one of the major challenges under occupation, and where organizers sought to "tell a different story than the one of conflict and hate" if they could just find the 42 KMs needed for a marathon. This is the second time in a month that the Gazans were refused a chance to run...

This kind of shit is just mean.

**** Israel!

So, MJB you beleive in guilt by association, even if that association is generational, HUH ???Are you a US Citizen ??? Just curious you know because in my undergraduate Constitutional Law class that was something that we here don't beleive in, sounds more like Sharia ( sp ) law, are you a practicer of that philosophy.
