MT told me about Al Anabi team just a few days ago and what a coincidence that I find this picture. Apparantly these guys have been streaking their way to the top of the Drag Racing and Funny Car scene. These guys chased their dreams and acheived this all on a tight budget when they started. A quarter of what the professionals spent.

Respect to these guys, it’s fantastic to see that Qatar is representing in the US!

Freedom of Expression

    Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which the Qatari Government is a signatory of states: 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 medias and regardless of any frontiers.

    The Emiri Decision Number 86 of the year 2007 on the establishment of the Doha Free Information Centre marked yet another step towards establishing a State of rights and freedom of speech. The decision stipulated that the Centre be a non-profit organization, headquartered in Doha City, and have the authority to establish other affiliated centres inside and outside Qatar. It is worth mentioning that His Highness the Emir issued a decision in 1998 annulling the ministry of information, giving birth to a new era of freedom of speech where censorship was removed from local media.
