Fisk complains about John Malkovich's unfriendly remarks:

Robert Fisk: Why does John Malkovich want to kill me?
He might be denied any further visas to Britain until he apologises for his remarks. But the damage has been done
14 May 2002

It used to be just a trickle, a steady drip-drip of hate mail which arrived once a week, castigating me for reporting on the killing of innocent Lebanese under Israeli air raids or for suggesting that Arabs – as well as Israelis – wanted peace in the Middle East.

What's the matter, Robert, can dish it out but can't take it? All you're for is peace and equality, right? That's why you accuse Israelis of "genocide", "massacre" and "war crimes" left and right without evidence, or, I might add, apology when your reports have been shown up as totally bogus? Malkovich said, as far as I understand, "I'd like to shoot him", which is intemperate but not a direct threat or incitement -- as opposed to much of Fisk's work. Fisk still is completely unable to recognize that any part of Mark Steyn's column on him was sarcasm. Beyond parody.
