Barry Rubin, Middle East Expert and Voice of Moral Clarity, Diagnosed With Inoperable Lung Cancer

Please join me with a prayer for Professor Barry Rubin, "Why I’ve Always Written So Much with Such Intensity … And Why I Won’t Stop Now." (Via Blazing Cat Fur.)

I attended Rubin's lecture in Brentwood last year, "Dr. Barry Rubin, Lecture, Children of Jewish Holocaust Survivors, Los Angeles March 10, 2010." No one wrote with more authority on the revolutions in the Middle East. Rubin's voice was crucial in understanding the implications of events, especially in Egypt.
