talking about something political , you may not agree with what i said but that doesn’t make your or my opinion not right

You Started it ..

So was Reading Newspapers ( as always ) and i noticed a small note in one of writers corners ( we do have a lot of writers )

[AlQabas][Link] {arabic}

نشاطر الشيخ راشد الحمود الجابر الصباح رأيه في الاعتراض على تسمية نص شارع الهلالي باسم المرحوم عبد العزيز الصقر

WE agree with Sheikh Rashid alhumod Aljaber AlSabah his opinion in on the nameing of 1/2 of Alhilai Street with the name ” Abdullaziz Alsajer”

( There is more but this is the part i need )

So i went checking , i don’t normally Read Sheikh Rashid Articles , not my taste
but him complaining about a name that should be interesting

[AlWatan][Link][Arabic]

يقسم هذا الشارع إلى قسمين، قسم باسم الشهداء والقسم الثاني باسم عبدالعزيز حمد الصقر!!. ما هذا التقييم؟! رجل يوازي الآلاف من الشهداء الذين فدوا الكويت بأرواحهم منذ نشأتها وحتى اليوم؟. ويوازي حكاماً أو يزيد على حكام؟

The street is split into two parts , one parts is Shuhada (martyrs) and the other part Abdullaziz Hamad Alsajir !! what kind of Evaluation is that ? a Man is worth thousands of martyrs that have sacrficed theirs lives for kuwait since its inception and worth rulers or more ?

Clearly we can see his problem , its the rulers part , since he is after all Secretary of the Royal Family
its not after all about martyrs , we do have an Arena named Shuhada , and to tell you the truth , everyone knows that Kuwait does not Care at all about its martyrs , Sure Every day The martyr this or THE martyr that ( THE martyr = Fahad AlAhmad AlSabah )
But no one else is mentioned , we don’t want to remember the invasion AT ALL ( we means government policy )

I love how is that Article he is trying to mention Bad things That Abdullaziz Hamad Alsajir Did , and lump good thing with it
he mention that he was one of the leaders of Monday Dewaniyas ( a popular movement to oppose the suspension of constitution )
and that his Brother Lead a movement

And HE want some recognition for THE martyr , newsflash THERE IS AN AREA NAMED AFTER HIM

Speaking of Area’s , Why we want to create confusion by naming an Area Mubarak AlAbdullah and naming another Area
Abdullah AlMubarak , thats asking to lose mail ( not that they need reason )

one part i like was this

أين ابراهيم المزين العجمي حامل العلم عندما قطعت يده اليمنى بالحرب حمل العلم بيده اليسرى الى ان استشهد.

Where is Ibrahim AlMuzain AlAjmi the Flag Carrier who when his Right hand was cut he held the Flag with his left till he was martyred

1- I Really think that is familiar
2- why name a street WHEN HE ISN’T IN THE HISTORY BOOK , Check the History Book of the Minsitry of Education NOTHING
hell i just tried to google it NOTHING EITHER
YOU DON’T TEACH US ABOUT THESE STUFF and when you do talk about history you try to make it as fluffy as possible

أين أسماء رجال الكويت القدامى الذين خدموها في مجالات مختلفة، منهم هلال المطيري وعلي بن شملان وإبراهيم المضف، الذين اختلفوا مع الحاكم مبارك الكبير وهاجرو

Where is the names of Old Kuwaitis that served Kuwait in many field like Hilal AlMutairi and Ali bin Shamlan , and Ibrahim AlMuthaf that disagreed with The ruler Mubarak AlKabeer and left Kuwait

Look , you need to chose a Side and stick to it , you said Abdullaziz Hamad Alsajir Was Bad because he disagreed with the Sheikh and left Kuwait , and these guys disagreed and left Kuwait but they are good ?

A Court Case to Follow

Sometimes i hate how hard it is to follow court cases in Kuwait
because some of them are realy important

One Case that just came up is very important to all bloggers and webmasters in kuwait because it will set a precedent
From Alaan news site

وجهت النيابة العامة صباح اليوم رسميا للدكتور سعد بن طفله العجمي-ناشر جريدة – اتهاما بالإساءة إلى مؤسسي شركة أمانة، وذلك بموجب قانون المطبوعات والنشر رقم 3 لسنة 2006. وقد دفع الدكتور بن طفله بعدم اختصاص النيابة النظر في هذا الاتهام بناء على:
1. عدم الاختصاص القانوني لأن قانون المطبوعات والنشر لا يشمل النشر على شبكة الانترنت.
2. عدم الاختصاص المكاني لأن الحاوي الرقمي (السيرفر SERVER ) لموقع جريدة الان موجود في الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية.

The Prosecutors office today morning officially accused Dr Saad Bin Tiflah al Ajmee – the publisher of al alaan – an accusation of abuse toward the Amana company founders , under the press & publishing Law of 2006 , Dr Saad Claimed that Prosecutors had no jurisdiction to consider this accusation for these reasons
1- Lack of legal jurisdiction :The press & publication law does not cover online publishing
2- Lack of jurisdiction :The server which host Alaan online newspaper is in the USA

That would set a precedent for all us bloggers ( as far as i know , most blogs use Blogger or wordpress and some use private server neither of which are in Kuwait )

Randomizers

few random tidbits from here and there ( in my mind )

* was checking around MOI site , thats one nice site , now they even take pictures of impounded car that are going to be sold off in an auction and posting on the site , one great idea , big thump up on the site

*
Went to the Kuwait Car show , took a lot of pictures ( around 100 ) went with couple of friends , and one of them ( who i lent a camera ) came later to me and was saying that the Camera is out of charge , then i found out he had done over 300 pictures ..
those will be soon up on flicker with couple comment about booth babes 😛

* speaking of booth babes ,what good are they in a car show if they are going to pretend to be able to answer question then calling on an Indian guy to answer it ? just walk around and don’t act smart

* Commitments , too much of them lately it seem , couple online and couple offline i should re-evaluate them

* Power point presentation : its funny how some presentation i make ( which took a combined time of 30-40 minute ) get high grades and praise , I’m not sure why either , maybe because they look genuine effort ?

* Thanks for the help Shurouq

* why when i’m asked for IT help i don’t get normal problems ?
Internet not working ? most normal IT people will just hook the cable or check IP address but me no
its had to be the VOIP thingy and someone switched the AC downgrader from the handset to the main Adapter

*
Been following the Book about Mubarak AlKabeer on Alari newspaper , well thats 10 KD saved ( that was the price at the kuwait book fair ) because it seem like Biased Rubbish , just a small sample


وصل مبارك الى الحكم في ظروف صعبة ووسط مجموعة من الصراعات السياسية والعسكرية انتهت بمصرع أخويه محمد وجراح

Mubarak arrived to power in difficult circumstances and amid a series of political and military conflict ended in the death of his brother Mohamed and Jarah

you know , we aren’t idiots , he killed them , just say it and don’t Float around it , this book is considering its self a history book not a romantic novel

Is logic banned in kuwait ?

Time and time again i get the feeling that logic is a banned substance in Kuwait

How is asking for democracy and quota for woman logical ?

How do we want to make Kuwait a finical harbor ( as everyone from higher up claim ) when i can’t import a book / DvD / Video Game without it begin delayed at the customs for 2-3 weeks ?

How can we be a Finical harbor when the mail doesn’t get delivered ?

Why we Blame the Parliament for not building anything new in Kuwait when it was suspended from 1986-1992 and the government have the upper hand when they feel like it

How is it logical that every professional ask for a special Raise because of wage gap between them and other profession ?

How is it logical that my name spelling in English is not the same in my passport and driving license when they are printed by the same ministry

This country need a big amount of logic ,, either we need to Import it or produce it locally ( very hard it seem ,, we lack logical people i believe )

Kuwait Suspended by FIFA

I don’t know , should i be happy or very happy about these kind of news

Regarding other items, at the request of the Associations Committee, the Kuwait Football Association has been suspended with immediate effect from all international football activities until further notice on account of government interference in the association’s affairs and for infringing its own statutes as well as for failing to comply with a decision passed by the FIFA Executive Committee

FIFA Site[link]

of course i would have been happier if they suspended all soccer / football in Kuwait
