An Arabian Lech Walesa

ARTICLE: Saudi Lawyer Takes On Religious Court System: Rights Cases Used To Press for Change, By Faiza Saleh Ambah, Washington Post, December 23, 2006; Page A01

This Saudi human rights lawyer is the kind of person I would pick for a Nobel Peace Prize. Somebody who risks life and limb daily to reform an unjust system that routinely spins off the Osamas of this world is doing God's work. He's a Lech Walesa of the Arab world, and he deserves recognition and support. I assume Amnesty Int'l is on his case, one of the reasons why my wife gets away with giving away so much of my income behind my back (I tend to find these things on my credit cards after the fact).
