The right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Well, here's another right that doesn't exist in the Jewish state in 2010 if you're from the wrong side of the political aisle: The right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
After coming up against a brick wall at City Hall trying to stop illegal Arab building on private Jewish property in Jerusalem, East Jerusalem activist Aryeh King decided to change tactics. He therefore asked police for a permit to demonstrate in front of the illegal building in the neighborhood of Samir Al Amis, hometown of the Prophet Jeremiah. But the police refused King the right to demonstrate. He is now taking his case to the Supreme Court.
But Obama will be upset if we actually stop illegal Arab building in Jerusalem. After all, we don't want to do anything that would change the status quo, do we?
