Saudi Arabia Blocks Amnesty Website Following Anti-Terror Law Criticism 
------------------------------------------------------------------------



Amnesty International has accused Saudi Arabia of blocking its website
after the rights group criticized a new Saudi anti-terrorism law. On
Friday, Amnesty called on Saudi King Abdullah to make changes to the law
that grants the Saudi government the right to imprison people for up to
10 years who question the integrity of the king or crown prince.
