...brought this on herself.”Her case, as you can imagine, isn’t unique. Since coming here one month ago, I have heard too many stories like hers. For example, in 1994, a Congolese man died after being jailed for complaining about inadequate food rations. Through coercion, intimidation, inaccessibility, and inaction, the people of Meheba are cheated out of their right to complain.

While they may complain about having to pay back the U.S. government for the costs of their evacuations, from the darting look in his eyes, I think Ismael would go to great lengths (perhaps questionable ones) in order to have a spot on a boat to Cyprus. Many of the 100 or so other men milling around...
