Newspaper Suspension

Here you can read the news about the suspension of a newspaper in Kuwait.

In March 2012, a criminal court suspended the newspaper of Kuwait for three months and sentenced the editor to a six-month suspended jail term and fined him US$ 3,500 for publishing articles that "raise sectarian strife." They clearly don't respect the right of free speech; freedom to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds, regardless of frontiers, either orally, in writing or in print, in the form of art, or through any other media of his choice."

Here in Spain the situation is different; every newspaper can say what they want, sometimes they are accused to be too offensive with someone and there are economical fines. What's more, newspaper can't be suspended.

I don't think that I or any group, which isn't from Kuwait, can change anything about this issue. It's a matter of the people there, they need to understand that the suspension are against their human rights and accept the challenge to fight again it. If they are too fewer people or the most of the population don't care because they are afraid it's impossible to make a change.
