Sounds like Fisk is instigating noble-Osama nostalgia. So soon! He's like a Englishman safari taker, bringing home pics of calm, resting lions to show his friends, omitting the pics of the lions tearing apart a zebra. The evil of it is he knows the lions are dangerous, but such doesn't fit in the western-guilt trip he spins. So it's omitted. He also sounds a little masochistic, methinks.
I'm still perturbed that no "journalist" has sought out the people in Pakistan that beat up Fisk. Fisk's story about it is fishy, first they're nice and smiling, then they're beating him up. He offers no real explanation why the turn of events except to blame America about the bombing, which doesn't explain why the people were nice to him in the first place. I thin it would be a good story.
I had an argument about Fisk with some British liberal, who claimed that Fisk wasn't justifying his a## kicking, he was 'understanding' the reasons why he got his a## kicked....how anyone can read that article and not see that he was justifying it is beyond me, but I did get a self righteous lecture from them about how I couldn't tell the difference between justifying and understanding....
