Mr. Obang Metho Addresses Ethiopian community in Jerusalem Israel!

On behalf of these Ethiopian refugees, the SMNE respectfully calls on the Government of Israel, the Ministry of the Interior, the Knesset and other people and bodies associated

with the implementation of the Anti-Infiltration Law and its amendments, to consider its revision. In particular, we would for the protection of asylum seekers from the application of this law.

We also respectfully call on you to cease disclaiming the cases of these asylum-seekers as being without cause until there is a welldeveloped asylum process in place, free of bias, with all deficiencies corrected and until authorities possess accurate and up-to-date facts about the state of repression in Ethiopia, so as to fairly evaluate the claims of these African Refugees without discrimination.

The present acceptance of only 1% of all asylum claimsiii calls into question the entire process; something that is very disturbing in
light of the very real threats many of these refugees will face at home.
Mr. Obang Metho
