A Death in the Family:"Christopher Hitchens measures his words against a family's grief and a young man's sacrifice"












"In the last analysis, it was quite clear, Mark had made up his mind that the United States was a force for good in the world, and that it had a duty to the freedom of others."


Christopher Hitchens wrote an article that inspired a young American to volunteer to enlist and go to Iraq where he was killed by an IED. Hitchens has written a hell of an article about discovering his writing where his writing led and about his meeting with the family and wife of Mark Daly. Read it. As long as we have men like Mark Daly we will never be conquered by the ORCS of 7th Century Islamo-Fascists.
