...you want a real cringe moment watch Hitchens extoll American actions which brought "Jeffersonian Democracy" to Iraq...as he does on one clip...with that smugness only he can muster...I wonder what he would think now? But then, he had to know such a thing couldn't happen overnight in a country without the Enlightenment or even a Renaissance in its history.

And what would he have thought of a great superpower stepping into the American Civil War to stop all the slaughter? Or attacking the United States to wipe out slavery? We got to do what we needed to do and would have resented deeply and fought against anyone telling us what to do and enforcing it with weapons....give other people their chance.
