When Sofyan Alyan visited his parents in Kuwait last summer, he did not suspect their lives would change overnight.
A Palestinian KU student, Alyan has been following the events in the Persian Gulf since the night of the attack and an urgent fear for his family a well-being.
Palestinians have difficulty acquiring visas from Kuwait,KU student says
Alyan was born in Kuwait 28 years ago. His family had to leave Palestine in 1959, three years after the Israeli invasion of the country.
Kansan staff writer
By Patricia Rojas
He said his parents, a brother and a sister had been trying to get visas to
"That country was invaded, for God's sake," he said. "And you want them to prove they have a job?"
Alyan said this condition was unrealistic given the economic and political instability brought about by the invasion.
But getting a visa does not seem to solve Alyan's family's problem. Traveling between Iraq and Jordan is hazardous.
He said that the allied forces were continually bombing the road to Jordan.
Alyan and his wife had tried to get help from Rep. Jim Slatter, D-2nd District, and senators Bob Dole and Nancy Kassebaum. But these congressional leaders offered them little hope, he said.
Alyan was referring to identification documents issued to Palestinians by the Egyptian government.
"Since we are countryless, they don't give us visas." Alyan said. "They give us documents, but these documents don't entitle us to anything. They are only for identification."
IF YOU'RE PREGNANT AND YOU NEED HELP
He said some Palestinians living in Kuwait had been able to get visas from the U.S. Embassy in Jordan. In many cases, however, the U.S. government has not proved they had a secure job in Kuwait before issuing them a visa.
Furthermore, provided they were able to get treatment, survival still was poor.
Jacquie Bugg, district aide to Slatery, said the congressional representatives were practically powerless to help.
"Jordan doesn't want to get stuck with the people," he said. "Nobody will give us jobs. We are not citizens who should help why should they take care of us?"
