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.

Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell is an interesting read. It provides a different interpretation on the reasons for success and emphasises the fact of how wrong the adage “self made man/woman” is. Gladwell argues that success is never overnight but is deeply dependent on several factors from culture, society, education, and even the year of birth […]
Tom Hanks doesn’t much act in his movies and is not type-cast. He is just a naturally good human being! That’s the simple fact, and his writing completely confirms this too. As I read his stories in Uncommon Type, I was almost urging him to put in some drama at this point, or do a […]
The Book of Joy is a life changing book. Do you believe in serendipity? I certainly do after picking up this book. It was like the universe was aligning just at the right time, and presenting me with this book because I needed its teachings most. This book was bought by my lovely wife while […]
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!
