Modern Discussion Sets Up Online Petition
March 3rd, 2007Modern Discussion, according to its Web site, is a “media news cultural tribune to publicize objective and critical dialogues and opinions about the vital issues concerning the secularism, democracy, human rights, women’s rights, development, environment, human heritage in order to build a humane, civil and secular society that guarantee basic political, economic, sociological, cultural rights for humanity.” Kareem Amer regularly published his reformist articles on the Web site.
In support of Kareem, Modern Discussion has set up an online petition campaign titled, “There Is No Sanctity but the Human Being and His Freedom: A Solidarity Campaign for Liberal Writer Abdul Kareem Suleiman”. The petition states that, “We, the undersigned, strongly condemn the unjust sentence against liberal writer Abdul Kareem Suleiman, and we demand his immediate release.”
