ICWA Fellow Jonathan Guyer was interviewed by PRI regarding the assassination of Jordanian writer, Nadar Hattar, and the implications it has for freedom of speech in Jordan.  Nadar Hatter was arrested for sharing a controversial political cartoon on Facebook and was to stand trial for insulting Islam.  Before his trial, Hatter was shot outside the Amman courthouse by a lone gunman.
