Let Kareem go
In the spirit of the coming holiday - Passover, the holiday of freedom, we are appealing the Egyptian government to pardon Kareem. After all, blogging shouldn’t be a crime:
Four years in prison for blogging: three of them for inciting “hatred of Islam” and one for “insulting the president.” That’s the sentence handed down by an Egyptian judge to a young Egyptian blogger, Abdelkareem Nabil Soliman, generally known in the blogosphere as “Kareem.” On his website, he had criticized his university, Al Azhar, for being close minded and for suppressing thought — for which he was expelled. He called Egypt’s president Mubarak a dictator — for which he was arrested and imprisoned. As he noted, “I broke the widespread traditions in the Great Jail of the Arab Republic of Egypt!” For that he was sent to jail.
mubarak, like it was was asked many years a go from Pharaoh, we asking you today: "Let Kareem go".
