-Basking in the beauty of Oscailt-
What on earth is the purpose of the previous comment? the content of the post is worthy of the greatest possible circulation. Even for the Zionists, this harassment of a special needs athlete is really plumbing the depths.
Exactly WHAT are the Israelis preventing?
Are they preventing him from travelling to Ireland by ANY route? Are they preventing him from travelling with ANY documentation?
Just want some clarification to make sure this isn't a case of "political pawn" -- there IS after all a dispute going on over who controls border crossing, recognition or lack thereof of a Palestinian state, etc.
The israelis refused to let Lyad Abuelkhier out of the gaza strip / egyptian border.
The rest of the palistinian party had left previously but he was following on later when it happened.
This news should be spread so people can know whats going on over there so I am a bit puzzled as to why flanagan is being attacked over this.
Historically, palestinians and the olympics don't go very well together.
I guess you didn't understand the sort of details I was asking about. I rather suspect that you don't care about the answers to questions like I was asking for more information about.
We'll try again since you seem to know SOME details. Same sort of "papers" as those who were let through earlier? Same crossing point? If "papers" not different, is there a "staus" difference involved?
Might I point something out? The "normal" route for international travel from Gaza to say Ireland does NOT go via Egypt -- long way to the nearest Egyptian airport. So we presumably ARE playing some sort of "political games" here.
Are you saying that "Israel won't let him go" OR that "Israel won't let him go without documents that indicate coming via Israel" etc.
