So everyone living in the middle east has those right, whether they realize it or not?
The governments there are committing gross human rights violations.

This sums up my views:
quote:


Nature, or rather God, has bestowed upon every one
of us the right to defend his person, his liberty, and his
property, since these are the three constituent or preserv-
ing elements of life; elements, each of which is rendered
complete by the others, and that cannot be understood
without them. For what are our faculties, but the exten-
sion of our personality? and what is property, but an
extension of our faculties?

So this part is saying, by virtue of human physical capabilities, these things are possible. I don't see how this is any more than a statement of fact, regardless of the 'power' that you deem to have granted said capabilities.

This does not equal "right to property".
