Kuwait, a culture of face, is more concerned about its reputation than anything else. As a result, issues such as corruption, terrorism and human rights violations are often denied or simply ignored. In most cases, the victims are punished. Despite the fact most people are too afraid to denounce them, some Kuwaiti and expat writers are exposing the violations committed against helpless victims... some times at the risk of being accused of destroying Kuwait’s reputation or even being arrested.

I am a Canadian living in Kuwait. Before I came to Kuwait I used to be the very quiet type who minds his own business. However, after my arrival it all changed. I had been witnessing and reading about so many human rights violations against those who can’t and/or aren’t allowed to defend themselves, the impunity enjoyed by the offenders because of the corruption and a system turning against the victims rather than protecting them. Eventually, I could no longer contain my outrage and decided to take a stand. I do not consider myself as a human rights freak but I do care a great deal about the issue. I believe every human being, men and women, deserve to be treated as equal. I despise those who abuse their power to force others into servitude. I admire anyone who has the courage to stand up for the weakest simply because it’s the right thing to no matter what the risks are.
"Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves."
(Abraham Lincoln)
"Many of the civil rights we take for granted were only achieved because someone was willing to take on the establishment with civil disobedience."
(David Schreck)

The increase in the number of erectile dysfunction patients and the easy availability of the ED drug viagra in the online pharmacies have made it easy for many to order viagra online. There are certain online pharmacies that use a number of superlative degree adjectives and try and befool the customers. Buying Viagra online without proper inspection of the online pharmacy can have serious affects on your health and there are chances that your cheap Viagra never reaches your home. Whenever you buy viagra online it’s very mandatory to bear in mind that you go through a medical consultation and that the Viagra that you are given is FDA approved. Otherwise it would be wiser to buy viagra from a local known chemist.
