The Washington Post had run a story on Saudi bloggers last week, and they finish it with a quote yours truly: “I want our society to move forward, and I want to be part of that change. I don’t want to be 40 and still struggling with the issues we’re dealing with now.” Read what other fellow bloggers have to say about it, and if you can read Arabic you may want to see how AlArabiya.net manipulated the story and how their readers reacted to it.

    That was a good article in the Washington Post about Saudi blogging.

    I am interested to hear what Saudi Bloggers have to say about this article:
    Blair hit by Saudi ‘bribery’ threat

    Has this made the news in Saudi Arabia yet?

    I can’t find reference to this story in practically any, non-British media. I think there may be something wrong with the story, but I’m willing to learn otherwise.

    Ahmed, I read the story about saudi bloggers, I was curious about Mystique especially as it seems, some of you didn’t like what She writes about, so I tried to reach her blog, and… it seems to be gone. Any idea?
