Egypt arrests a prominent blogger

By TigerHawk at 5/07/2006 01:30:00 PM

Egypt has apparently arrested, Alaa, one of its most prominent Arabic bloggers, in connection with the ongoing struggle in that country over the independence of the judiciary. Haitham Sabbah has the story and the context, and the Sandmonkey has more, with a picture of Alaa.

The contact information for the Egyptian embassy is below:

The Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt

Release the hounds.

UPDATE: Tuesday morning news and links here. Keep the heat on.

Frankly, I have always been mystified why we give those clowns (the Egyptian government) $2 billion per year in aid. Anyone out there can explain it?

Under the realpolitik regime, it was stabilization money to bribe the Egyptians into using other distractions for their abused populace than yet another war with Israel. Today, it's something of a holdover, money to be paid until we figure out a way to get a free Egypt by pulling it.

Folks, it's an election year and all sorts of politicians are looking for way to show they are tough on thugs and are fiscally responsible. If Alaa is not released immediately, we need to raise the stripping Egypt's money out to the political world and get real pressure applied.

a woman, or the feminine in men and women, seeks to share deep awareness of the world
in a sacralized communion. the presence of soft candle light, wild flowers, and the
rituals of dressing for the occasion are simply metaphors acknowledged and “lived out”
in honor of the moment. in honor of life. in honor of shared awareness of the infinite
in a moment.
