The most famous Arab blogger in the West

Did I not tell you: the avalanche of coverage for this blogger has just begun.  It will only get worse, and the US Congress will take up his case only because he is a Zionist.  I expect that Human Rights Watch will name a special award after him.  Hell.  In one year in 2007, the Mubarak regime arrested more than 7000 political prisoners and the New York Times said not one word about that. But look now:  "Three days before he was arrested, Mr. Nabil also published a post calling on Israelis to stop “supporting Egyptian militarists” like Field Marshal Mohamed Hussein Tantawi, the head of Egypt’s ruling army council. Mr. Nabil, a Coptic Christian who called himself “pro-Israel” in an interview with an Israeli newspaper last year, also argued that Egypt’s military would prefer an Islamist government to a truly democratic one."
