>>> Christopher Hitchens knows why they hate us:

I wish I had seen this. Hitchens vs. Ron Reagan. As you said, quite a mismatch.

Hitchens has an excellent understanding of the situation and could trounce just about anyone on the subject. I thought this was great:

CH: Excuse me. When I went to interview Abu Nidal, then the most wanted terrorist in the world, in Baghdad, he was operating out of an Iraqi government office. He was an arm of the Iraqi State, while being the most wanted man in the world. The same is true of the shelter and safe house offered by the Iraqi government, to the murderers of Leon Klinghoffer, and to Mr. Yassin, who mixed the chemicals for the World Trade Center bombing in 1993. How can you know so little about this, and be occupying a chair at the time that you do?

Nice.
