[Peace] Fwd: Protect Consular Rights; Live Web Chat 2p Mon 8/4 w/ CCR's Vince Warren

[E. Wayne Johnson]

The old story is that a wrongfully imprisoned man in a foreign jail
is demanding to talk with his Ambassador.

The jailer tells him that is easily accomplished, you can indeed talk to 
him,
since the Ambassador is being confined in the adjoining cell.
