Links are my choice, but do not necessarily reflect my opinion. I often link to articles, sites and blogs with which I disagree. I try to look at all sides, but the fact that I'm human makes it impossible for me to view anything completely objectively. |
28 December, 2001: "Arrest Robert Fisk!"By Kathy Kinsley The King of self-loathing has a new article in the Independent, explaining how he met Osama bin Laden and, as William Quick points out, convinced Osama that the American people were responsible for their government. The relevant quote: "I am not against the American people," he said. "Only their government." I told him I thought the American people regarded their government as their representatives. Bin Laden listened to this in silence. "We are still at the beginning of our military action against the American forces," he said. Will someone take the man and put him away somewhere before he does more damage? I'd take apart Fisk's latest writing attempt if Tim Blair (who suffers the unfair advantage of being in a time zone hours ahead of mine) had not already done a surgically precise job on it. Tim's comments are in [brackets].
