Abstract
- The article focuses on the works of Tal al-Mallouhi, a 17-year-old blogger and writer from Damascus, Syria who was arrested because of her blog containing a commentary about Palestine and a wish to change the future of Syria. Al-Mallouhi was charged with spying for a foreign country and sentenced to five years' imprisonment with no right to appeal. It is noted that Al-Mallouhi represents the beginning of the Jasmine Revolution calling for the end of President Bashar al-Assaad's regime.
