Hitchens in chaos
It's pretty clear that the thinking of the Hitchens' part of the 'pro-war left', for want of a better term, is in almost as much chaos as their pet project in Iraq.Last week we had his rant about an 'October Surprise', and how discussion of such is near treason, despite the fact that he was once the journalist most in favour of such thoughts.
Today we have Oliver Kamm delivering a typically forensic skewering (though to be fair it's in a piece promoting a book by David Horowitz, which is rather disappointing) of the view held by Noam Chomsky (and importantly of course Johann Hari and Christopher Hitchens) that Clinton's bombing of the Sudanese medicine plant killed 10,000 or more people.
