Interesting article today in Belfast Times of Christopher Hitchens by former left wing mate of his. CH was converted to right by 9/11 and gives the left a good lesson in real world.

Hitchens is a useful voice and brain we need and had the brains and gumption to be converted.

When I heard Hitchens converted after 9/11, my teeth fell out. He was a dyed in the wool socialist-lefty. He is a very smart man and still connected to his old socialist friends who bash him on his conversion. But he remains resolved that our mission going forward is very serious. The jihadist's have taken over and there is no going back. It's going to be war for a long time.
Here's a background piece to Hitchesn (written by a surprised lefty):

Everything he writes now is a MUST READ. His best so far was the Teraza bashing over her bin Laden prediction:

His articles are frequently posted at slate.msn.com.

Interesting article, I also think he is a very intelligent man. Glad to see he has some common sense re the Islamic facist element we are dealing with.
