Bravo to Canada for taking action!

Dr. Richard Grossman:
Hi everybody,

I am so glad that Raif has not been forgotten:

"Saudi blogger Raif Badawi wins EU's Sakharov rights prize"

IMO, he is a hero of our time.

Horrendous situations, I always hate to read about things like this as I feel so helpless, it's obviously so, so wrong and yet this is what people in power can do - and ignore, if they so choose.  Thank goodness Mr Badawi's wife and children are somewhere safe, at least, let's just hope they can get him out and help Mr Fayadh as well.
