Is there any way to pressure the Saudi gov't to release the recently arrested blogger, Fouad Al-Farhan?

The snip:


Saudi blogger, Fouad Al-Farhan was arrested on Tuesday, December 11, 2007 following a raid on his office by Saudi authorities who did not give any reason for his arrest.





Fuad is considered one of the first Saudi bloggers to use their real name when posting. He dedicated his blog to a frank discussion of the various social and national issues, in a true embodiment of the slogan of his blog: “in search of freedom, dignity, justice, equality, consultation, and the rest of lost Islamic values… for Raghad and Khattab.”

Is there any way to pressure the Saudi gov't to release the recently arrested blogger, Fouad Al-Farhan?
No....once they decide something, it's very hard to convince them to change their minds. Maybe something could be done if the local human rights group pressures them....maybe.
Reply:Well....like I said, it's very hard to convince them. The whole world had to rally for the Qatif girl and only then was she pardoned. Will the world do it again for Al-Farhan? Let's see! Report It

Reply:No offense, but you should leave the saudi government ALONE


they have there laws, let them mind their's


you mind your own
