Don't forget the people of Bahrain. They are still fighting for a decent life with their blood!

Av

In Bahrain, the conflict seems to go from bad to worse, when the PM har ordered death penality on demonstrators.

I'm told that this is about the Prime Minister, vying for power over the King and Crown Prince. And that the Shiite Majority in Bahrain respect the King & hold on to hope that the Crown Prince will gain strength to over come the manipulation of the the PM. He has been in charge for 42 years.

I'm also told that the people want to be represented and be heard. There protests are economic, about housing, health, education, equality and the chance of a decent job. This is what they have been protesting for, not to over throw the the Govt.

The moderates from both communities were uniting (Sunni & Shia), when the "thugs" started causing trouble. This reminds me on Egypt, when Mubarak let prisoner loose to attack demonstrators. This is extremly bad actions, that will make reconciliations even more difficult after the conflict ends.

Seems to me that it's the brave people of Bahrain who suffer. The moderates in Bahrain both, Shia and Sunni who have lived together for hundreds of years.

I hope the PM restrict himself. History shows us that the opressed one day will rule. And each day there are fewer rude countries to hide in...

Thanks to @davesund for informing me!

10 argumenter mot EUs datalagringsdirektiv

photo © 2008 Dave Winer | more info (via: Wylio ) Fra carlchristian.net har jeg følgende gode gjennomgang: Jeg har 10 gode grunner til å si NEI til EU direktiv 2006/24/EF (også kjent som DLD): 1. Min korrespondanse er min! Den tilhører verken politiet, staten, teleselskapet eller andre. Lagring utover fakturabehov er en privatsak. Politivirksomhet må kunne begrunnes direkte i forbygging og bekjempelse av kriminalitet for hvert enkelt tilfellet. DLD tilpasser virkeligheten til politiets behov. Dersom vi setter politiets behov foran folkets rett til frihet tar vi det første skrittet mot en politistat. 2. Det er borgerne som skal kontrollere sine folkevalgte, ikke omvendt. Dette ligger i prinsippet om at all makt utgår av folket. Enkelte hevder at DLD kun lovfester lagring av trafikkdata hos selvvalgte, private teletilbydere. Dette er en avsporing. Det sentrale ved DLD er at lagring blir regulert av lovene. Utlevering reguleres av lovgivere ved definert behov og gis til lovgivere el
