This is heartbreaking. This young man a Christian Kurd , a journalist in his country is waiting for asylum. After three months here at Rehoboth above St. Antonin he was sent with others to an area in the north of France to await news of his asylum application. He has just had his first interview and is awaiting the result, which I am pretty sure will be positive. All our lads who have gone to this area, 8 of them have been terribly unhappy. To night I received this.
Hi Val
i do not want to live here.
People here think we are savages.
I am forced to live here
Here Hitler is alive.
in this area 2 times I was spat at
Why? I am human
It is the same all over Europe.
All people not good like you.
Everyday I see people here in the spirit of Hitler.
Val says
I am fed up of telling people that our attitudes are becoming like in the 30's towards the Jews. What does it take for us to see what we are doing. Where is our humanity?
My heart bleeds for them, for us. Us for our selfish, cruel, uncaring treatment of people who have no desire to be here. People who running and escaping to save their lives and thought the West would care and they would be safe.
Tonight I am ashamed of us all, me for not being able to change opinions and you who make this young man feel like this. I despair and hope your children and young people never need help to survive.
