   I am very proud of you, Richard. You have done well. This is what the blogosphere does the best – noodge the mainstream media to pay attention to stories the corporate headquarters don’t want to touch.

   Thank you.

   This is so well deserved. Your blog’s combination of quality writing, intellectual substance and courage makes it so precious and deserving of wide attention.

   Speaking truth to power is always a lonely and frustrating slog, and it’s doubly so when you happen to be questioning sacred cows that are relentlessly whitewashed by the MSM. It’s also exhausting, as you must constantly contend with hordes of intellectual thugs who hurl the same tautological arguments over and over.

   The nature of the Blogosphere, alas, rewards partisanship and “attitude” over fairness and substance, so it’s so heartening to see a voice of reason like yourself getting recognition.

   Forgot to mention that an outspoken dissident like you is subjected to a hardship that even Muslims in this day of rampant Islamophobia rarely face: The ferocious hatred and bile of hardliners in your own community that consider your dissent treasonous and dangerous.

   Few things in this world are uglier than the fury of pro-Israeli zealots towards Jewish activists who try to dare to apply Jewish principles of justice to Israel. You really get a sense that they’d rend you limb from limb if they could. It’s sickening.
