Reporters Without Borders welcomes the decision to retry 21 dissidents before a civilian court. Only Anglosphere has real justice. Greece, the most corrupt country in Occident, has the worst justice in Fourth Reich, easily manipulated by the kangaroo government. Greek justice is a spider web, catching small prey and swallowing them, while allowing crocodiles to penetrate and dominate it. Visiting Greek prisons, one could see all les miserables that fill them up, but he could not find any kleptocrats. http://venitism.blogspot.com
The freakish governments of Bahrain and Greece use charge stacking to persecute dissident bloggers. Charge stacking is the ability to charge a large number of overlapping crimes for a single course of conduct. Combining crimes enables prosecutors to get convictions in cases where there is no misconduct at all. By stacking enough charges, including treason, prosecutors jack up the threat value of a trial against a dissident blogger, even if the government's case is very weak. Charge stacking is terror. The disgusting governments of Bahrain and Greece cannot terrorize the people.
The defendants include two bloggers, Abduljalil Al-Singace and Ali Abdulemam, and the human rights defender Abdulhadi Al-Khawaja, who has been on hunger strike for more than 80 days and is in very poor health. The trial began on 8 May but was immediately adjourned until 21 May because Khawaja and another defendant are hospitalized and were too ill to attend.
"This new trial will hopefully redress the travesty of justice that these activists received when they were court martialled," Reporters Without Borders said. "They must now be acquitted and those responsible for mistreating them must be called to account for their acts."
Bahrain and Greece violate Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), which states that everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.
The jail sentences that were imposed at the end of the original military trial on 22 June 2011 were upheld on appeal on 27 September as regards 14 of the defendant including the blogger Abdeljalil Al-Singace, who had been given a life sentence.
They were convicted of creating and running a terrorist group designed to change the constitution and system of monarchy by force, being in contact with a foreign terrorist group that acts in the interests of a foreign country and carries out hostile actions against Bahrain, and raising funds for this group.
The other seven, who had been convicted in absentia, were unable to appeal without first surrendering to the authorities. They include Ali Abdulemam, who was given a 15-year sentence and has been missing for more than a year.
In October of 2010, an unknown American, member of Crystal Clear Forum, an American Yahoo Group, used as pseudonym the name of Mariliza Xenogiannakopoulou, Alternate Minister of Foreign Affairs of Greece, to post a single message about Turkey. The unknown American did not violate any law because, according to the Supreme Court of USA, anybody can use any pseudonym or pen name. For example, thousands of people use Obama's name as a pseudonym. It's considered an honor, not a forgery. http://venitism.blogspot.com
Only spoofing is forgery. The unknown American would have used spoofing if she used Xenogiannakopoulou's email which is marilxen@gmail.com. Instead she used mariliza.xenogiannakopoulou@yahoo.com which is not Xenogiannakopoulou's email. The unknown American posted on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/crystalclearforum with her pseudonym using a kind of literature called Lyric Essay, which uses emotion and color to enlighten a message.
Some malevolent blogbusters misinformed Xenogiannakopoulou that the culprit was I, Basil Venitis, just because my name was mentioned in the post! As a result of this misinformation, on October 18, 2010, a gang of six brutal cybercops of the violent Greek Cyber Crime Unit (CCU) broke into my home in Athens and into my college office, and stole my computers, software, files, documents, and personal data.
The cybercops locked me in jail for a night, they humiliated me with handcuffs, fingerprints, mug shots, and lies, leaked false information to the media parrots, and the Greek government initiated sham court proceedings for a stack of charges, including forgery and treason! There was neither pillow nor toilet facility in my jail cell. I had to urinate in a bottle! I, a 65 year old with heart problems, was not allowed to keep my hypertension pills with me. There was neither toilet paper nor soap in the whole CCU jail facility.
But that's not the end of the story. My nerves are broken by no accuser showing up during my court trial! The judge always has to postpone the trial for another day and so it goes ad infinitum. Meanwhile, I always have to show up and waste the whole day waiting as there is no definite timing for the hearing, but only a day. I and my lawyer have to be in the courtroom the whole day until the judge calls my name. Then the judge calls the name of the accuser, nobody replies, and the judge postpones the trial for another day. This has happened five times so far! This is a real Greek tragedy! Justice delayed is no justice, justice perpetuated is hell.
JAILBIRD FOR A NIGHT

Big brother checks the internet
For things you criticize
To shut your mouth on the net
To shut your mind on the sky.
Cops busted my home
And stole my computer
Hard disk on their comb
blogger on their mooter.
They threw me in jail
For speaking my mind
My words are out of jail
Revolting in a kind.
This jail is awful
Without pillow alone
Urinating in a bottle
And the girl next cell begins to moan.
Screaming in the dark of jail
Guards pretending they are deaf
She is a girl, she is frail
She is missing her Jeff.
I can smile at the old days,
I was a handsome professor then.
Those were real happy days
Happy memory lives again.
Lesmiserables in jail
Kleptocrats out of jail
This is hell on Earth
It's shame and pain.
Time for a real revolt
To bring a real change
To bring the looting to a halt
Kleptocrats should not escape.
Kleptocrats must be laughing
Premier must be happy,
This is stupid and disgusting,
Government has a party.
Harmglads sleeping before dawn
Silence cut with a cry
Jailbird could be reborn
Coming back to a happy life.
My memory leads me
Finding strength within
People really love me
A new life should begin.
Waiting for the sunrise
Thinking of a new life
I mustn't give in
A new day will begin.
