Let Alaa Call Me a %#@&(&^ Settler

The post title is a bit misleading, because the truth is I don't know what Alaa would call me. But that is exactly my point.

Alaa is an Egyptian blogger who was arrested protesting his country's justice system (I can relate to that). Right now he can't express any opinion at all, on his blog or anywhere else. There are many who are trying to secure his freedom.

I didn't think that I personally could do anything for him, until this morning when I read Abbagav and his link to Lisa at Ontheface., who details what we can all do.

Those of you believe in freedom of speech, even for those who disagree with you, please follow the link and help to free Alaa.
