Petition! Civil Rights for Palestinian Refugees in
Lebanon 

Posted: 22 Jan 2010 09:03 AM PST

Please sign and circulate this petition! It involves an innovative
twinning intiative. Each signer will be twinned with a person living in a
Palestinian refugee camp located in Lebanon. The number of signers
required to secure a personal twinning with each refugee is 433,000.
Express your views to those who govern Lebanon and to the persons living
in refugee camps. Civil rights should not be denied to any
refugees!

To:  The Cabinet and Parliament of Lebanon;

Secondary only to ending the siege of Gaza and achieving Statehood, the
enactment of the basic civil right to work and to own a home for the
hundreds of thousands of Palestinian Refugees living in squalor in
Lebanon is perhaps the most critical and immediately achievable goal of
the Palestinian resistance and the ideals enshrined in the 1948 Universal
Declaration of Human Rights.

Friends of Palestine and supporters of basic civil rights, wherever they
live, can help this happen without violence or martyrs by signing and
distributing the Online Petition and by twinning with a Palestinian
Refugee in Lebanon.

The Palestine Civil Rights Campaign-Lebanon and the Sabra Shatila
Foundation Beirut, Lebanon-Washington DC.

We the undersigned from many countries, mindful of the urgent need for
equal human rights for our Palestinian Refugee sisters and brothers in
Lebanon in their Civil, Political, Social and Economic dimensions,
herewith signify our solidarity with Lebanon as this great country nobly
corrects six decades of injustices by enacting civil rights legislation
for her guests from Palestine.

Affixing my name to this petition expresses my wish to personally
"twin" in solidarity with one of Lebanon's Palestinian refugees
as they and their Lebanese hosts continue to work and prepare for their
Return.

Sincerely, (signed)

PLEASE SIGN HERE!
