I've been waiting for Hitchens to give his 2 cents. He makes a pretty good point about the exiles too.
To: Pokey78
Excellent. One of the best, if not THE best, article on Saddam's capture. Hitchens gets straight to the point and stays there. Agood, incisive mind.

A diet of fear is bad for the system and has pernicious long-term effects.
Hitch is good too.

Good article. First the trial - if it's on C-Span, we'll get cable - and then turn him over to the Kurds. And then burn the bits and scatter the ashes.

Hitch is my favorite lefty. I guy I wouldn't mind meeting down at the pub every so often. (Wouldn't want his bar tab, though!)

Well, we got a taste of that with 8 years of Clinton.

I was wondering what Hitchens would have to say. The following line bears repeating.
So here is a moment to salute those who refused and resisted.

and I wanted everyone to get a long look at him, as they have been able to with Slobodan Milosevic The two cases are opposites. Milosevic is showing in open court, at the Hague, that he was falsely indicted and proving it.
I wish Hitchens would elaberate on his hit and run of Milosevic.

So here is a moment to salute those who refused and resisted. Early reports of the tyrant's capture indicate Kurdish intelligence forces played a leading role in tracking Saddam down. I hope this is true, because there is natural justice as well as legal justice to be considered. It doesn't matter if it's Tiennamen Square, Tibet, Chile, the Soviet Union, Germany, France, Denmark (when these latter three once produced a few courageous people), people that resist when the chances of success are minimal, in the short run, are worthy of boundless awe.
