Horrid mutation...

Christopher Hitchens has produced a fine piece in the Sunday Times as a prelude to his viewpoint on the Euston Manifesto. The piece revolves around seeing the placard 'No War On Iraq. Freedom For Palestine'.

The third reason, not quite so well laid out by the rather 10th-rate theoreticians of today’s left, is that once you decide that American-led “globalisation” is the main enemy, then any revolt against it is better than none at all. In some way yet to be determined, Al-Qaeda might be able to help to stave off global warming. (I have not yet checked to see how this is squared with Bin Laden’s diatribe of last weekend, summoning all holy warrior aid to the genocidal rulers of Sudan as they complete the murder of African Muslims, and as they sell all their oil to China to create a whole new system of carbon emissions in Asia. At first sight, it looks like blood for oil to me.)

Euston Manifesto, Hitchens, politics.
