He has a little boy and a little girl and that whole thing just sucks! Here, from his blog: <blockquote>The issue that caused all of this is because I wrote about the political prisoners here in Saudi Arabia and they think I’m running a online campaign promoting their issue. All what I did is wrote some pieces and put side banners and asked other bloggers to do the same. he asked me to comply with him and sign an apology. I’m not sure if I’m ready to do that. An apology for what? Apologizing because I said the government is liar when they accused those guys to be supporting terrorism?</blockquote> So sad... That is so sad! He has a little boy and a little girl and that whole thing just sucks!

I wish that I knew what it is that he was saying, but it's pretty easy to gather that it's anti-government. Here's hoping that the story gets out and reaches the ears of someone who has some clout with them. Because, unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that a bunch of online bloggers are not going to change their mind. Thanks for bringing attention to that.
