Liberty and Opportunity are Rare
Somewhere in Turkey lived a Kurdish man, who spent most of his time working and only a little time socializing with his family and friends. One day, because he was a Kurd, and perhaps because someone didn’t like the look of him, he was taken onto a truck and bound and gagged and driven into Lebanon, into the desert where he was left to die, alone.
In fact it was not just one Kurdish man, nor was it only Kurdish men, nor was it only Turkey.
How many people will be plucked from their lives to die alone today?
How many are on the truck right now?
