We need to face up to it.<BR/><BR/>EricAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25327006.post-2515263797263216492008-04-28T11:58:00.000-05:002008-04-28T11:58:00.000-05:00Hitchens in an anti semitic drunk. On about page ...Hitchens in an anti semitic drunk. On about page 129 he talks about how he wishes the Jews had been wiped out in the battles commerorated the "Hannukkah". He said, "We could have been spared the whole things."<BR/><BR/>With that, I took the book back and got a refund.<BR/><BR/>But I should have realized where he was coming from long before that page when he praised "the ethcial glories of Marxism."<BR/><BR/>Worst thing about Hitchens is that he is an unapologetic supported of Bushes war. He loves anything that kills Muslims.<BR/><BR/>EricAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
