He's (currently) against the proposed Gulf War II.  I don't
think he's done any wholesale revamping of his point of view
on intervention in general.  He retains his contempt for
things to the left of Dissent Magazine as was evident when
he excoriated a questioner for referring to the new police
powers of the US as 'gestapo' powers. (kudos from Hitch and
small applause from audience for this comment)

I apologize, but I cannot give more than this
impressionistic report as I wasn't actually sitting watching
the segment, but was doing house chores and half listening
to it.
