She shouldn’t have “apologized” or “explained” herself!

I’m 100% against what happened to her(she’s fired because of a personal tweet!),

but the fact that she “explained” and “regretted” what happened is simply ridiculous!

يعمل صديق لي بشركة شاءت الصدف أن يكون بجوارها مكتب “لإستقدام الخادمات”

(جمع مصطلح إستقدام وخادمات طبيعي جداً في هذا السياق بالنسبة لرئيس الشركة أو “المالك” ربما؟)

بالمناسبة, المبنى نفسه مبنى مكاتب وشركات ولا يوجد أي شقق سكنية فيه ولا أعتقد أنه مجهز للسكن حتى

المهم..صاحب الشركة أو المالك(يمكنكم إختيار المصطلح المناسب) المصون قرر أن  يبيت أو “يخزن” خادماته المستقدمات في مكتب الشركة

أكثر من 10 صبايا يسكنن في هذا المكتب وبحوذتهن المفتاح الأكيد(طبعاً حنون الزلمي)

نعود لصديقي..الذي فوجيء منذ فترة بورقة ممضاة من أصحاب المكاتب بالمبنى على أن مدخل المبنى سيتم قفله بعد الثامنة مساءً

السبب؟ خروج الصبايا, عفواً  ”الخادمات المستقدمات” ليلاً الذي أدى إلى فضيحة المبنى وتشويه سمعته

بعد نقاشات وإعتراض صديقي على الموضوع…تم تنفيذ القرار لكن مع إعطاء الصبايا المفتاح

….

كتبت هذا المقطع من هذه التدوينة منذ شهرين تقريباً كمساهمة في حملة 24/7

لكن لم يتم نشرها بسبب ضيق الوقت وعدم قدرتي على كتابة خاتمة تشرح شعوري تجاه موقف اللبنانيين من العاملات الأجانب من آسيا و أفريقيا

لذا سوف أنشرها كما هي..من دون أي تعديل..على أمل أن تجد الصبايا الخاتمة لمأساتهن في هذا البلد!

This country and its official keep surprising of how low they can be..

How could you write down a law to monitor anything that doesn’t exist yet?? Give us decent internet or any telecommunication mean and then write your stupid laws(we won’t accept them then either).

Internet has been the only free (kind of) air we could breath in this miserable country..and now they’re getting their dirty hands on it..And what REALLY REALLY REALLY pisses me off is that the civil society is not allowed to comment!!

What can you about it? ACT NOW(by smex)!

أول مرّة سمعت بملتقى النساء العرب كان بلقاء المدونين العرب

كان رأيي ببساطة “فكرة أكثر من رائعة”

وأخيراً الفكرة تحققت (شكراً منال)

كل التفاصيل عن تنظيم  الملتقى في الفترة من 11 إلي 14 أيار/ مايو 2010 في منطقة الذوق، جونية، لبنان موجودة هنا في بيان الإعلان عن الملتقى:

Its first attempt was with the Lebanese blogger Khodor Salameh, aka jou3an -hungry in Arabic- because of a post he wrote about the president. They demanded him to change his tone, close his blog or just stick to poetry or he might be prosecuted!

I’m speechless and furious!!!

Lebanon, Welcome to Threatened Voices!*

*Threatened Voices is a project of Global Voices  to defend the free online speech, it’s a:

A collaborative mapping project to build a database of bloggers who have been threatened, arrested or killed for speaking out online and to draw attention to the campaigns to free them.

Today (March 12), “Reporters Without Borders” are celebrating the World Day Against Cyber Censorship.

Maybe we cannot relate with the subject in Lebanon since this virtual side of this messed up country is still free (so far) but it doesn’t mean we’re off the hook. If they’re not doing anything about what’s being said in our blogesphere, it doesn’t mean they don’t want to, they just don’t know how…yet!

I mean we’ve seen some of their “intentions” when they tried to shut down the TV show “LOL” because of  some “inappropriate” jokes!

To see what we might be facing in the future, nothing is more clear and frightening than the list of the bloggers at Threatned Voices who have been threatened, arrested or killed because of their words online!

What anti-censorship means to me? Freedom! Our most basic right as human beings! We need to be free to express our feelings, thoughts and opinions with no fear of anyone! Censorship by other parties usually ends up with self-censorship, you’ll end up imprisoning yourself if they don’t do it themselves! Which is more dangerous to me..

How companies and governments should act in regard to this censorship? Not by only allowing others to talk freely online, but by making sure they have the means to do so. In Lebanon, they can start by offering a decent internet and telecommunications infrastructure..
