The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. — Samuel Adams

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].
