"What Did Mohammed Say? Who Knows?" Hitchens blows up Islam real good in an excerpt from his new book:

An excerpt from his new book . . . . ."Why Heaven Hates Ham"

Another except . . . . "Joseph Smith's Long Con"

A day in the intellectual glare of Christopher Hitchens in the National Post.

Does Hitchens make his argument? Will he need a bodyguard after exploding Islam?

I like Hitchens. The guy in no PC drone that we get so much of nowadays. He skewers those on either side of the spectrum with equal abandon!

He has been tearing a whole into the wingnut-left for a while now for their saddleling up to Islamic fascists. I think he has a couple of fatwas on him already!

I love this part!

At last, this was the Hitchens we had all come to see -- not the pudgy man at the pulpit, picking his teeth with his glasses, but the chain-smoking bon vivant, rapier-witted popper of ideological balloons, tipper of sacred cows, Trotskyist neo-con, accomplished drinker of Johnnie Walker Black, and the only man in the world who could denounce Mother Teresa as a promoter of poverty and then be invited by the Vatican to comment on her beatification.
