>Hitchens's version of events contradicted by the footage he derived his veracity from

Shocking

True I would suggest reading the description if you have not already

>a couple of small details
>The audience is larger, and the confessor does not come in wearing chains (metaphorically, perhaps, but not literally.)

This is like critical theory 101.

Oh and I also enjoyed Hitchens's newspaper story at the final section of that video, essential /r/thathappened material.

he was describing the details as that Iraqi author did

dude morality lmao

He was embellishing the events in order to put up the show for the audience. I'm pretty sure he made up the story about Saddam's moustache influence as well.

>spilling coffee accidentally on a photo of Saddam means police are coming to execute you

Made up.

>I'm pretty sure he made up the story about Saddam's moustache influence as well

That can only be known by Hussein himself, but that is irrelevant

>spilling coffee accidentally on a photo of Saddam means police are coming to execute you

maybe, really what I thought what was interesting is the coup itself

What really is interesting is how leftist is appealing to emotions while pretending that Iraq's population, religion and/or culture can be equated with fascists coming to power in the Europe.

It's incredible how much western leftism goes hand in hand with the military industrial complex and corporate culture of fear.

This is like listening to a scary bed time story. Woooh! Evil scary Saddam! Woooh!

fucking pathetic old propaganda.

>Christopher Hitchens
>lefty
top kek

Actually it was quite beautiful how Hussein handled the coup. I am sorry that you only want shit on Hitchens in this thread.

>Having long described himself as a socialist, a Marxist and an anti-totalitarian, Hitchens began his break from the established political left after what he called the "tepid reaction" of the Western left to the controversy over The Satanic Verses, followed by the left's embrace of Bill Clinton, and the antiwar movement's opposition to NATO intervention in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 1990s.

I won't go into his infantile views on religion that make Jacobins look reasonable.

Remind you of something?

Mfw i had mixed him up with morality man

Now I want Hitchens to retell Rohm's arrest and assasination.

>It was in dead of the night when Hitler arrived at the hotel. Nothing stirred outside and there was no light at the windows. From the second floor, sound of meat slapping on meat. Thwlap, thwlap, thwlap. Thwlap. Hitler adjusted his leather boots and stepped into the foyer flanked by his SS guards.

>The door of Rohm's room burst like German democracy. Here you had a grotesquely malevolent Chaplin at the height of his devilry, stepping into the room where his long term comrade was in the process of corrupting another Prussian cherub.

>The game is up, Ernst, said Adolph
>Flaccid and despodent, the former second in command was manacled and lead out, shivering.
>Back in the room, Hitler turned to the youth.
>I am afraid that our deal will have to be altered - after all we cannot let degeneracy flourish in defiance of our Sacred Germany.
>*Hitchens makes a pregnant pause*
>And then Heydrich stepped in swinging his violin bow.
>*gasps from the audience*

It's funny when you find out there's a lot of propaganda written by guys called Goldberg and Weißkopf portraying Saddam and his family as baby-eating monsters. It's even more funny when you find out they have no credible sources and Wikipedia is simply linking to their articles.

>Fascism means war

Always, but there cannot be a world without facism. Maybe in a God forgotten island in the middle of the ocean.

We have fascism now, masqueraded with democracy, and it's an evil one.

Fascism means war because the fascism that means good will always have to defend itself from the fascism that means evil.

...

>People are actually defending Saddam.
...........

>Pointing out Hitchens's bullshit means defending Saddam

I hope you never read Wittgenstein.

>Saddam's regime had a family member they named 'chemical ali'
>video evidence of chemical usage
>entire Iraqi marshes SOMEHOW disappear under Saddam's reign
>"Saddam was actually pretty good guys!"

Nice meme you lying Serb.

What has Chemical Ali got to do with this video of Hitchens spreading propaganda?

Btw Chemical Ali got his materials from Serbian chemical industry.

[spoiler]Hope a nice Kurdish refugee contingent move in next to you[/spoiler]

no he didnt

Well, I can't find any sources so I'm probably Hitchensing the narrative, but I did read it somewhere that chemical components were among Serbia's trade shipments to Iraq (not outright chemical weapons).

there was no serbia in 1995

>what is Yugoslav federation
>what is federal entity

stop it Franz

every rat has his day.

Based Saddam

Saddam was trained by the CIA to assassinate the Iraqi PM

yea, great yugoslav federation in 1995. A failed state is not a country

Shame we never got to heard what Hitchens would have said about ISIS.

He rekts Hillary pretty hard.

Pic related he's alive

>It is not a country because I say so!

have u been in serbia in the 90s ? I dont think so

very spooky

That's like something out of a Ancient Mesopotamian legend :D

Saddam knew that his people only understand fear and force. That's the only way to ensure productivity. Islam undermined this in the Middle East. They should revert back to that dark ingenuity that birthed the first civilizations. Pure creation

This. Watching footage without Cuck Hitchens background speech gives a more accurate sense of scene. Most of the crowd was demur they weren't "jumping" and screaming wildly as he claims. According to Iraqi dissidents many of the men called out were not killed, but simply beaten or jailed.

Leftists have to make everything into another shoah. Saddam killing "babies in incubators" being the most famous lie.

>Leftists have to make everything into another shoah. Saddam killing "babies in incubators" being the most famous lie.
That is a Bush lie though

Shh shh...this is Sup Forums. Every problem in existence is blamed on the "left".

The narrator's muslim accent was boring

Hillary supported the Iraq invasion

Few actually were against it because being against the war and finding out later that there were nukes would have hurt their political careers. Most of the politicians opted out of responsibility. As war became unpopular everyone, but conservatives pretended that they were against it.

>kuwait is just a game to me

And? Rumsfield and Powell straight-up lied to the world saying there was a need to invade.

Neocons (Bill Kristol, et al), who orchestrated the Iraq war, are leftists whose only real "right wing" interest in Israel regional power.
