I was refreshing my satellite channels when I came across Islah TV (Hotbird 10949V 27500 3/4). What caught my eyes and made me dig further were three things.

First is the list of names (Islah List # 13, I don’t know why 13) which is refreshing every few seconds. The names are of people from big known tribes and families who are known for their opposition to the Saudi ruling family, and covers a very wide scale of the Saudi society, army members, doctors, business men, professors, etc…

Second, the live (I guess) chat going on. The chat master looks to be a PhD. holder called Saád. However, the chat is going over PalTalk (which is one of the old Internet chat services). I didn’t check their room over Paltalk server, but I guess it is live. Even that doesn’t matter. The bleeding edge is the subjects they are talking about, which is obvious, removing Saud Family (regime as the call it) from ruling the kingdom, and the method they are suggesting. You wouldn’t believe your ears.

Third, Islah TV is broadcasting from London (I’m not surprised). They have a live sms bar and a news bar at the bottom of the screen. Again, news you never heard of, and sms’s of all kind around the same subject.
