Countries in the East should get used to the fact that blogs are where people talk and if people are going to be arrested for that, every two seconds thousands of people should be arrested. People cannot be arrsted merely for talking, noowadays people talk virtually. Fuad, be well you are going to be out any moment, I hope.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>He has this wonderful smile, I hope he will be freed very soon.
