A very interesting Kindle Single written by English-American author/journalist Christopher Hitchens in which he discusses Bin Laden and bin Ladenism as a form of tyrannical despotism and includes his own critique of those who attempt to soften the deeds of Bin Laden... This was a short read, although quite intense so it took me a little longer then expected to complete...the dictionary function on the Kindle really came in handy here ;) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

As always, Hitchens has no time for the self-flagellating and hand-wringing seemingly ingrained in Western society ("On no account—and this imperative was put forward by President Bush as well as by many liberals—were the less tender elements of his [bin Laden's] doctrine to be used as a critique of religion. A hitherto marginal propaganda term, 'Islamophobia,' underwent a mainstream baptism and was pressed into service to intimidate those who suspected that faith might indeed have something to do with it.") and is also keen-eyed in his literary destruction of the 'principles' of radical Islam and of the man who re-ignited it on one blue-skied September morning. It is this call-a-spade-a-spade mentality, allied with his irrepressible championing of freethinking and his eloquent writing style, which made Christopher Hitchens such a pleasure to read and his death to be mourned much more than that of a corpse dumped off the side of an American aircraft carrier into the North Arabian Sea.
