re: #172 BryanS
Taking a beating for his challenge to antisemitic symbols counts for nothing? I guess I haven’t seen the side of him you point out—it might be there and I haven’t paid attention to Hitchens for the whole of his career.
By scribbling on the Syrian poster, he was not defending Jews, Judaism or Israel’s right to exist, but he was defending Hitchens’ annoyance with nazi symbols. Then he turns around and cites Baruch Goldstein as an excuse to hate all observant Jews.
So it’s OK to hate all atheists because Stalin was an atheist?
