We’re all gathering tomorrow morning at the Court building at 9:30. Cases are looked at starting at 10:00am.
It’s a freedom of expression case, any way you look at it. Please show your opposition to attempts to stifle this freedom by being there.
Thank you.

Yep. One year. A full city of over twenty thousand souls has been under siege for one full year, since 20 June 2016. How about that? It must qualify for a world record of some kind and I know that this is the reason it is really in place, to pin yet another browny point on […]
In Bahrain, the citizen seems to be the unquenchable fount of money. Funds which most here are in desperate need of, are dragged out of our pockets by unremitting fines, fees and other government charges and levies. Last month, the Traffic Dept had its fun by sending us speeding fines that were more than a […]
Being of a “pure race” is a myth. A fallacy. Something that is imprinted in us; however, to perpetuate our mistaken sense of superiority. What that did – and still does – is just make us prejudiced and antagonistic toward each other. Being humble and inclusive is more important than living that fallacy. Watch this […]
Yoga was one of those things that I thought house-wives and mystics would while away their time in. The images I saw on the internet certainly supported this view. It’s no surprise that I veered away from Yoga. I’m a healthy and strong individual dedicated to an all-round gym experience, through this hard work, I […]
I’ve let myself go over the past couple of months and my weight has been creeping up. Well, I’ve been on holiday for a couple of weeks to Scotland and it was a bit stressful at work the last few months. Note that I’m not beating myself up for this. This is nothing to the […]
Not many people understand depression, including me. I found this on TED that might contribute to a better understanding. Depression is the leading cause of disability in the world; in the United States, close to ten percent of adults struggle with the disease. But because it’s a mental illness, it can be a lot harder […]

Always behind you, my friend. Today, more than any other day, I stand in solidarity with you. Don’t let them get the better of you.
Don’t want to say I told you so, but..

Mahmood, I agree with others in saying that what you’ve done is something reckless, these kinds of accusations are inflammatory and baseless.. where I’m from, if this turned out to be false, then you could get sued for libel.. given your previous brush with the authorities I think that you are pushing your luck
Mike
Mahmood did nothing more than express his opinion. A basic and fundamental right. I stand behind Mahmood 1000% and have even offered to fly in to show my support for him.
While I don’t know where you hail from you have a rather sick sense of justice if you honestly think Mahmood’s comments are libelous.
Mike, I did not libel nor accuse anyone without basis. But if you choose to believe that, then that’s your prerogative.
What I did is criticise a government official and his department as is my right as a citizen of this country.
Mike
The comment you are reffering to is your comment on parliament pays very well for some. The issue was clarified and Mahmood wrote another post to correct the first one.
This is something entirely different, there are no rumours or accusations.
I fully support Mahmood in his case and I am sure that justice will prevail no matter how long this case will take.
In 1995 I was the first Internet prisoner in Bahrain!! And I have spend 8 month’s in the prison under torturing only because I have used the internet Today we should stand up all together and say it to every one we have a Freedom and a voice
We all with you Mahmood
وياك يا بو عار٠قلباً وقالباً
موÙÙ‚ بإذن الله
Good luck tomorrow Mahmood!
You are in the right, and we all with you…
Best of luck man!
