More about the charges
Wednesday, March 02, 2005Homer has done some research into the charges that the BahrainOnline gang are facing. Go and read his post.
I was just thinking... the government's beloved Formula 1 Race will be taking place in just a month's time. What were they thinking when they decided to make these arrests? Were they hoping that they'd be able to wrap up the case before the race? With all the international media that will be in town, the Grand Prix will be the perfect place to hold demonstrations. I imagine that Shaikh Fawaz and others aren't too pleased with this crisis being created so close to the time of the race.

I was wondering, with all the negative blogging you(Chan'ad) are doing. Why haven't they put you behinde bars? I'm not asking this as an insult.

Ok, how about the not-so-supportive-to-the-wishes-of-the-royal-family blogging?

Knightmare, in short, us English language bloggers have nowhere near the readership size that Arabic language forums such as BahrainOnline have. So, either the govt doesn't know about us, or they're not bothered about us because compared to the forums we are small fry (no pun intended).
But I imagine they've become aware of our presence in recent days, and it may be a problem in the future. Let's hope not.
