Here's the relevant details:<br /><br />Please donate to the campaign. Although we are all volunteers, our work to support Abdelrazik's campaign involves many costs, and we depend entirely on donations to cover those costs. A very big thank you to those of you who<br />have already supported us; your generosity has made it possible for us to continue this important work. Please make your checks out to "Solidarité sans frontières", with "Project Fly Home" in the subject line and send it to <br />1984 Le Ber Montreal QC H3K 2A7. (Note that this money will go to the campaign, not to Abdelrazik, so is not covered by the 1267 embargo.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-48248496616292553672009-07-25T13:49:11.279-07:002009-07-25T13:49:11.279-07:00Anon : I'm not aware that anyone is still requ...Anon : I'm not aware that anyone is still requesting money for A.<br /><a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=69034411293" rel="nofollow">Here's the original Facebook link</a>, which in turn links to The Peoples Commission, the most up-to-date source on A <b>and all the others</b><br /><br />Paul : Unless I'm reading it wrongly it's on the <a href="http://www.un.org/sc/committees/1267/pdf/1267_guidelines.pdf" rel="nofollow">UN 1267 page Exemptions to the Assets Freeze Dec. 2008</a>.

I'm hoping they'll step forward again now. Write to them too.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09811694143714068436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-85401940550472114882009-07-23T14:54:46.515-07:002009-07-23T14:54:46.515-07:00thanks, Alison.

Wasn't there another one mentioned? I didn't quite catch it. I'd like to see a letter-writing campaign (again) to Cannon, Harper & party leaders to force open investigation of this case. I agree with you about the importance of this. Without public exposure & justice in this matter, there, we all could go.CanNursenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-27277931476041237512009-07-23T14:10:22.660-07:002009-07-23T14:10:22.660-07:00Your lede is perfect.
