To: The French and Israeli governments.

Honour Lassana Bathily - Supreme Human Being.

I want them to fully honour Lassana Bathily.

Why is this important?

This man was an ordinary Muslim shop worker who - in January 2015 - was caught up in the post Charlie Hebdo assault on a Jewish supermarket in Eastern Paris. He showed supreme courage in hiding several Jewish people and then escaping to inform the Police of their situation and the layout of the store. His brave actions undoubtedly saved the lives of these people and also quite possibly those of police officers as well. His story has been mocked by some right wing commentators in France and disbelieved by others. Although his actions are truly heroic he has never claimed himself to be a "Hero".He has never received any recognition from either the French or Israeli governments. This man was incredibly brave and his supreme human action means that his life will probably be in danger from those extremists who would wish to silence him. As such, he deserves full recognition and honour from both the French and Israeli governments.
