you're bound to get lambasted in the same manner that someone lambasted the report Applebaum cited: that, like the Hudson Institute, MEMRI is a notorious neo-conservative scheme to discredit and insult the Muslim world.

To be sure, that's not what I'm contending, but I'd almost guarantee that your post will get dismissed in that vein. It's funny how fray-members are apt to disqualify the veracity of something simply by pointing out any relation to neo-cons.
