I do have to say that yemens censorship is way more lenient than say UAE. they dont allow myspace, most bloggers, and way more sites. Its crazy they solicitate foriegners but block loads of web sites and the expates are complianing. They dont even allow skype! thank god Yemen allows skype! Its a very sad thing what happened to your car and I can just imagine how it must be trying to run a news agency there. However your site looks like the basic portal as mine was with news comming in on feeds. If your site has not stepped on any toes, im really do not understand the why they are blocking it. I wish you all the best, Yemen needs as much web presence as it can get. KNOWLEDGE CAN ONLY HELP A SOCIETY. ARROGANCE IS THE ENEMY OF ALL.
