So once again we gaze in bewilderment upon a world in which someone who confronted and physically fought fascists is routinely accused of selling out to the Right, while someone who celebrated with their Canadian fellow fascists is viewed by some as a hero of the Left.

Such are the delights of the extreme anarchist detached Euro Left.

Field: You have the Star Trek style perfectly.
Agree with NO, a real LOL.

If only Hitch took up karate instead of drinking.

VofR thinks scribbling FUCK OFF NAZIS or some such on a SWASTIKA poster is vandalism. I think i don’t need to read any more from him.

Thanks, Field & NO.

SSNP flag does look like something out of an old Star Trek episode!

Yep. I can see the Star Trek episode where the flag is revealed (to a weird atonal trumpet flourish) – Captain Kirk turns to Mr. Spock and exchanges a meaningful, eyebrow-raised glance, before pronouncing…

“A parallel world…where evil has triumphed…”

I’m no fan of Hitchens, and I suspect that this childish act of “resistance” was a bit of self-promotion. The SSNP is odious, but it is a small party in Lebanon, with no real weight.

I will certainly buy Hitchens a beer if I happen to see him the next time he comes to Washington.

The SSNP flag looks like something from a science fiction TV show about a future totaltarian govt. either on Earth or some other planet.
