Legge anti-Berlusconi.

Può sembrare una misura pensata per reprimere qualsiasi velleità di opposizione.
In realtà, se praticata con lungimiranza, consente piuttosto di concedere il perdono anche in modo più esteso di quanto accade normalmente.
Nel Golfo amnistie e perdono vengono concessi di frequente in occasioni come la festività dei due Eid, la giornata nazionale e altre celebrazioni. Anche attraverso intercessioni speciali in qualsiasi momento dell'anno.
La modifica alla legge potrebbe contribuire a rilassare l'acceso clima politico che caratterizza il regno.
