From Semir: "Another link I wanted to share with you about the situation
in Belgium.
In short, a young Afghan boy had to flee his country, leaving
his home bombed, his father dead and so on. He arrived 4 years ago in Belgium,
found a foster home, learned the language, has a job, and is very well
integrated in Belgian society. Now he has less than 12 hours left, he is been
expelled by the Belgian state at 6:15 tomorrow. I thought being a political
refugee would be THE valid reason to be able to stay in a country, ironically
the country where you are searching the status of a political refugee is helping
to spread democracy in your homeland by bombing it.
The case of Parwais is no exception in belgium, several other
political refugees are waiting tob e expelled from belgium for no valid reason
whatsoever.
Below is a translation of an article about this case. (sorry
for the bad English, for us Belgians English is like our 4th language, for 2nd
generation immigrants like me it’s the 5th language. J)"
