..that Hitchens just has a major problem with Moore which prevents him from seeing the forest for the trees, so to speak. Much of the criticism seems to stem form Moore's changing attitude towards Bin Laden. That seems pretty trite to me--before we had a chance to gather the evidence and facts after 9-11 many people felt Bin Laden should be considered innocent until proven guilty.
Hitchens criticism about Moore saying that Iraq never killed an American is harder to defend; but I would point out the it was the regime's goons that were doing the killing, not the Iraqi people.
