Award Winning Yemen Journalist Al Khaiwani Convicted of Disseminating Information
Although Abdulkarim al-Khaiwani was pardoned by President Saleh, the appeals court today upheld his conviction for "disseminating pro-rebel propaganda to local and foreign media". I do not know what will happen next.
Pro-rebel? This from a government that is engaged in collective punishment of the civilian population and belongs in front of the ICC. Oh, lets just call it a jihad, considering they have terrorists fighting on the government side against the Shiites and they are bombing and starving the civilians. What dictotards!!!
Oh and if the international humanitarian organizations want to know why they are not getting access, they could look back to my 2005 article about the allegations of chemical weapons use in Sa'ada.
