#2 Ten million readers on his site means a lot of people are pondering issues with their upbringing. Add to that the quiet apostates, whether they've lost their belief or converted, and something real is going on in the hearts and minds of the Ummah. It seems the actions of Al Qaeda in Iraq and SCIRI and the Sadr Army have been taken to heart throughout the Muslim world. It is, after all, one thing to want Sharia law in abstract, quite another to be beaten because your beard isn't long enough or your little son sang a nursery rhyme as he played.

What would Mohammed do (WWMD)? Probably cut his throat, an action which fundamentalist Muslims are quite fond of imitating.

#4 the acknowledgement of Ali Sina's existance on JPost is something of a breakout

Sina has gotten almost no mainstream media attention in the past 7 years (nothwithstanding his cogency, his knowledge of original sources, etc.).

The mainstream media instead concentrates on either apologists for Islam (like various professors) or idiosyncratic reformers.
