Hitchen's shows his trotskyist past...only in reverse.

On one side there has to be a progressive force, on the other a reactionary force. This is the dialectic. According to Hitchens, it is the USA that is the progressive side of the diad, according to, say, WWP, it is Iraq that are the progressive force.

He tries to get us in on this game of choosing, just as some on the Leninist left do. Whatever happened to goo ole (E) None of the above; or better yet, (F) Fuck 'em both.
