Bring Home Kidnapped American Siblings Eslam and Zainab Chebbi!

On Friday, November 11, 2011, Faical Chebbi illegally abducted Eslam Chebbi (5) and Zainab Chebbi (2) to his birth country - Tunisia. Despite having been naturalized as an American, Faical grew weary of failed attempts to survive in the U.S. and, in a last attempt to harm his now ex-wife, he abducted their two small children, and returned to Tunisia.

Having full legal and physical custody by mutual consent, Edeanna Chebbi had registered all legal custody documents and orders regarding the children with the Tunisian Embassy in Washington, DC. She was given direct assurances from the embassy that the children could not be issued Tunisian passports given this documentation.

Despite this, the embassy issued Tunisian birth certificates and passports in both children's names, and without knowledge or consent of their mother. This act contributed to the kidnapping of Eslam and Zainab.

Tell President and Mrs. Obama as well as Secretary Clinton to utilize all diplomatic and legal resources available to ensure that Eslam and Zainab Chebbi are returned to their mother in the U.S. Ask them to condemn the practices of the Tunisian consulate that contribute to international child abduction. Raise your voice and demand that our State Department act in full capacity to protect its citizens.

Join us in the fight to bring Eslam and Zainab back home to the U.S., to their family and friends, and the open arms of a mother who can't wait to embrace them!
