Everyone else is posting about this so I guess I’ll jump on board. Everyone’s favorite curmudgeon, Christopher Hitchens, debated hateful lefty (and now Islamist shill) Chris Hedges in Berkeley at an event hosted in part by this Islamic organization. The crowd was heavily stocked with Hedge style leftist apologists for Muslim extremism and Muslim supporters of Hedge. Hitchens waded into the fray admirably, and came out victorious. Zombie was there and has a great account of the action, including plenty of video. I’m posting parts 6 and 7 as they give a nice overview of the event:
