For Those Who CLAIM to Support Democracy...







...Why is it primarily Conservatives who are championing the plight of Abdulkarim al-Khaiwani (pictured), one of Yemen’s foremost democracy advocates, something he’s facing the ultimate penalty for.

Leftists and America’s MSM (same thing) have barley noticed that al-Khaiwani faces death in Yemen under the tyrannical Islamofascist regime of Ali Abdullah Saleh.

According to supporters, al-Khaiwani was beaten and his six year old daughter was knocked unconscious during his June of 2007 arrest. While released on bail in August, Al-Khaiwani was kidnapped and tortured by thugs who threatened his life if he continued to write about Yemen's president.

One supporter notes, “Mr. al-Khaiwani is everything that is antithetical to most of the Middle East today. He is anti-dictator, and anti-theocracy. He's pro-America and pro-democracy.

“And he may be executed for it.”

Hmmmm, where are all those Western Liberals/socialists who claim to revere democracy?
