Free Kareem! - Fri, 2007-12-21 00:16 By Admin
Marshall Kirkpatrick of the Read Write Web blog includes Kareem in a new entry today that covers the shutting down of “Think Secret:”
Another college student named Abdul Kareem Nabeel Suleiman is spending years in an Egyptian prison for blogging critically about Islam and the government he was born under. Another Egyptian, Wael Abbas, is presumably living his life on the run and had his YouTube account erased by Google after years of documenting government torture there.
Free speech and investigative journalism are of the utmost importance and none of these new media scribes deserve the treatment they are recieving. All of them, and many others, deserve our vehement support.
