A protester waves Kuwaiti national flag and chants slogans during protest calling for a

A protester waves the Kuwaiti national flag and chants slogans during a protest calling for a voter boycott, in Kuwait City November 30, 2012. Tens of thousands of people marched on Friday calling for the boycott, a day before a parliamentary election that looks unlikely to defuse tensions in the U.S.-allied, oil-producing Gulf country. Organisers said the march was the largest ever in Kuwaiti history and a message to the authorities of deep discontent with changes to the voting system ordered by the ruling emir, Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah, six weeks before the election.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Jamal Saidi, a protester waves the Kuwaiti national flag and passionately chants slogans during a protest calling for a voter boycott in Kuwait City on November 30,2012. The atmosphere is charged with tension as tens of thousands of people take to the streets just one day before a parliamentary election that offers little hope for defusing tensions in this U. S. -allied, oil-producing Gulf country. The sheer magnitude of the march is unprecedented in Kuwait's history and serves as an unmistakable message to the authorities, expressing deep discontent with changes made to the voting system by ruling emir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah merely six weeks prior to the election. As seen from this low angle view, against a backdrop of clear blue skies, the protester stands tall and resolute amidst fellow demonstrators. The image showcases not only patriotism but also faith in their cause. The unrecognizable figure draped in traditional clothes dons a keffiyeh while holding up their nation's flag high above their head. With detailed focus on these symbolic elements -the fluttering flag and determined body part- Saidi captures both individual determination and collective unity. This photograph encapsulates both defiance against an anti-government sentiment and unwavering belief in democratic principles. It serves as a reminder that even under open skies within vast open spaces, ordinary people can come together to demand change when they feel unheard or oppressed.
