Blogger Thrown In Jail

This is absolutly astounding. In the western world we take so many things utterly for granted. Yet all over the world, millions of people have their every move scrutinized. I feel as if my blog is a totally private thing. Perhaps my friends and family read it once in a while, but really who has the time or cares? Not many people. For Abdel Kareen Soliman, posting a blog entery was equivalent to waving a flag in the face of a tyrannical governemnt saying "Throw me in jail... for 4 years!"
