Well I have. And I deeply respect what he is trying to do. It's solution oriented unlike cheap talk.

Give it up. I left out an important part in my original post: this guy only got media attention in America. No media attention in the Arab world, because being a Google employee didn't make his sacrifice any more significant. The European media had enough sense to not focus on this guy either. Only the insufferable mainstream American media is self-centered enough to push the narrative that an employee of an American company was instrumental in the Arab Spring.

I am Arab. Please speak for yourself. Nobody appointed you spokesperson for Arab opinion.

I think Wael has played and continues to play a very important role.

Appears to me you are confusing the words instigator and initiator. Check a dictionary for the difference.

One could make the case that Bradley Manning or Julian Assange or Wikileaks initiated the Arab Spring. But nobody is going to deny they instigated it.
