Steve I hope this is irony on your part. There have been so many innocents killed in this little misadventure since the US began playing in the middle east sand box picking up the toys as they did after the English. It really is tish tosh to invoke the innocent to make Hitchen's right. The viciousness of liberal humanism is betrayed when upon blood stained hands they lecture everyone else about the rule of law and civilisation. You and Hitchen's may be done with history but history as they say is not done with you.
