clearcutforum] KLEPTOCRATS TERRORIZE SAKHAROV LAUREATE AND OTHER BLOGGERS
--Cuban dissident blogger Guillermo Farinas has been arrested for the second time in 24 hours and though it is thought likely he will be released shortly, Reporters Sans Frontieres(RSF) points out his sole offence has been to campaign for freedom to inform and liberty of movement, a right still denied the Cuban people.
Emulating the disgusting paradigm of infamous Graecokleptocrats, who persecute and jail dissident bloggers, the government of Cuba terrorizes dissident bloggers. Blogging in Cuba and Greece is considered an extreme-risk avocation. Freakish kleptocrats accuse dissident bloggers of treason, confiscate their computers, and lock them is jail! Freak galore! These prisoners of conscience follow the long tradition of Socrates, who was killed by the Athenian democracy.
Premier George Papandreou of Greece crossed the Rubicon on October 18, 2010, when his deranged minister destroyed a distinguished professor and dissident blogger. That's why the Global Tax Revolt declared October 18 as the International Day Against Cybercop Brutality.http://groups.yahoo.com/group/globaltaxrevolt
RSF notes that Farinas, who was awarded the 2010 Sakharov prize, was first arrested on 26 January while taking part in a demonstration in support of a family risking eviction from their home in the province of Santa Clara, east of Havana.
Sixteen dissidents were arrested on this occasion on charges of public scandal. Farinas was held for nine hours before being released yesterday morning. Dissident blogger Yoani Sanchez warned on her Twitter account of the consequences a night in detention might have on the delicate health of Farinas. She also posted that the people detained, of whom she was one, had been freed without charge but threatened with reprisals at the next demonstration of civil disobedience or antisocial behavior.
Hardly had Farinas, who is 49, been released when he was again detained as he was making his way with a dozen or so dissidents to the Santa Clara police station to ask about the condition of another dissident held some hours earlier.
In 2010, Farinas undertook a hunger strike of more than four months to call for the freeing of sick political prisoners. His action attracted the attention of the international community to the government headed by Raul Castro which finally agreed during mediation by the Roman Catholic church and the Spanish government to free 52 dissidents.
RSF reports thst of the 41 prisoners so far released only one has been able to stay in Cuba, with the rest forced into exile in Spain. Another 11 prisoners refused to leave the island and so remain in prison. Among them are three journalists from the Black Spring of March 2003: Pedro Arguelles Moran, Hector Maseda Gutierrez and Ivan Hernandez Carrillo.
Global Tax Revolt points out the persecution of dissident bloggers is unquestionably a serious attack on freedom of speech, and contrary to Article 2 of Lisbon Treaty, Article 10 of the European Convention of Human Rights, and Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The disgusting governments of Cuba and Greece cannot bully the blogosphere without repercussions and blowbacks. The international civil society got a shock and awe from the brutality of the infamous Greek government on October 18, 2010.
