Qatari poet freed after three years in jail for reciting poem allegedly insulting emir
This article is more than 6 years old
Rashid al-Ajami was originally sentenced to life in prison in 2012 after clip of poem recital was posted on YouTube
Article 263 further states that the circulation or production of symbols, slogans or drawings that might offend the Islamic religion will be punished with one year of prison or a fine of 1000 riyals ($275).
Internet censorship of peaceful expression of religious views has been reported in the country with the state blocking sites that contain content perceived as anti-Islamic. The law also prohibits, in vague terms, publication of texts provoking social discord or religious strife.
In addition, Qatar’s Law 11 of 2004 incorporates Sharia law into various offences, including apostasy. Article 1 states:
“the provisions of Islamic law for the following offenses are applied if the defendant or victim is a Muslim:
1. The hudud offenses related to theft, banditry, adultery, defamation, alcohol consumption, and apostasy.
2. The offenses of retaliation (qisas) and blood money (diyah).”
Qatar has apparently not imposed any penalty for this offense since its independence in 1971, though it remains on statute.
At 6-foot-7, Floyd was identified as the “the largest” of the six suspects who arrived at the home in the Ford Explorer and had pushed a pistol against Henriquez’ abdomen before looking for items to steal. (Nothing in the court documents suggests she was pregnant at the time of the robbery, contrary to what memes and Owens later claimed.) He pleaded guilty in 2009 and was sentenced to five years in prison. He was paroled in January 2013, when he was almost 40 years old.
BBC News Channel, Friday 23 July 2020
We referred to George Floyd’s death as occurring during an encounter with white police officers. The officer who knelt on his neck is white, but two of the other three involved are not.
In 2018 BBC News Persian published an article (in Persian) which used an inappropriate word to refer to homosexuality. This word should not have been used and the article has now been corrected. We apologise for the offence caused.
Ofcom says it is happy with it’s decision to permit BBC to run a new online Dance music Radio channel.
The commercial channels have gone to court
saying that in some ways legal procedure was not followed
eg BBC didn’t give Ofcom the correct info
that the channel is to be cross subsidised by given concert content from Radio1
etc.
May I ask a question of our erudite bloggers, if we do have to pay into this kitty for reparations, can we offset our contributions already paid in foreign aid?
Coal workers’ pneumoconiosis (CWP), commonly known as “black lung disease,” occurs when coal dust is inhaled. Over time, continued exposure to the coal dust causes scarring in the lungs, impairing your ability to breathe. Considered an occupational lung disease, it is most common among coal miners.
On 22 March 2020, 7-year-old Emily Grace Jones[1] was stabbed at Queen’s Park in Bolton, Greater Manchester, England, while riding her scooter and died shortly afterwards.[2][3] Eltiona Skana, a 30-year-old Albanian woman unknown to the Jones family, was arrested on the scene and later charged with murder.[4][5]
Skana pleaded guilty to the lesser included offence of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility on 6 November 2020. After a trial at Minshull Street Crown Court from 26 November to 4 December, the charge of murder was withdrawn by the prosecution and the jury was directed to formally return a not guilty verdict for murder.[6] On 8 December, she was given a life sentence, with a minimum term of eight years, for the conviction of manslaughter.[7] On 26 January 2021, Skana’s minimum sentence was increased to 10 years and eight months, with the presiding judge stating the previous minimum sentence had been “calculated in error”.[8]
…………….
The British government paid out £20m to compensate some 3,000 families that owned slaves for the loss of their “property” when slave-ownership was abolished in Britain’s colonies in 1833.7 Oct 2021
The British government borrowed £20 million to compensate slave owners, which amounted to a massive 40 percent of the Treasury’s annual income or about 5 percent of British GDP. The loan was one of the largest in history.

Of course it is too wow to be true
and NO “Data Showing 18 Million Vaccine Injuries in America”
The article says there is data
“about 800,000 reported being hospitalized by their COVID vaccination.”
from an App sample size of 10 million.
The magazine then says that scaled up across the whole population would EQUATE to 18 million. ie 8% of valid population.
Is 800K correct ?
Is it 1 count per person per vax
Or is it double counting ie a person visiting 2 hospitals for help on the first and 2 hospitals on their second is counted as 4 hospital visits.
The claim is so hyperbolic it can be true
cos at 8% everyone would be directly be related to someone who’d been hospitalised fir vax injuries.
People do die from vax side effects, so you’d guess that many more got sick
but 8% doesn’t seem possible
0.8% or 0.08% more likely.
“a court ordered it to do so following a lawsuit by the Informed Consent Action Network”
