Christopher Hitchens On Iran and Nuclear Issue

Christopher Eric Hitchens (born April 13, 1949) is an author, journalist, and literary critic. He has been a columnist at Vanity Fair, The Atlantic, World Affairs, The Nation, Slate, Free Inquiry, and a variety of other media outlets. He currently lives in Washington, D.C.. Hitchens is also a political observer, whose books — the latest being God Is Not Great have made him a staple of talk shows and lecture circuits. In 2009 Hitchens was listed by Forbes magazine as one of the "25 most influential liberals in U.S. media. The same article noted, though, that he would "likely be aghast to find himself on this list" and that he "styles himself a radical," not a liberal. In 2007, retaining his British citizenship, Hitchens also became an American citizen after residing in the US for a quarter century.

Sorry for the red shadows on the video, I have tried to give a best quality.

Even if the IR falls and the most pro-western, pro-democracy, pro-human rights ect. government takes charge in Iran, it should never deny Iran the right of nuclear energy and should continue spinning the centrifuges.

[Persiancreed1]

Totally Agreed :-)

Iran has the most potential of any country in the world. Educated, young, resources, and basic family structure to foster quality citizens.

Stop the nuke loving mullahs now. No more travel, no more transfer of oil blood money, shut them down and they will come down. Let us react, and organize. Don't call our resistance terrorism. We have the right to rid our country of these mad men, and women in head scarfs.

Mr. Hitchens if you are reading:

Our long standing respect for elders has run its course. Our inability to challenge authority is gone. Our nation is young, angry and mad as hell. Most certainly we are done with Mullahs and their "Islam". We have ipods, palms, and the internet. Our world is yours, our desires are yours, and we want to express ourselfs. But open the discussion about resistance post 911. We resist & are called terrorists. EXPLAIN THAT.

@ThePoultrysolution

You have neither read up on, nor comprehended anything about the current Socio-Political conditions of the Middle-East. Anyone who think s Iran is ''Threating it's Arab neighboors'' is a fool.

Iran isn't a threat to anyone, their Air Force is barely even a 'force' - they can't even make enough gasoline for themselves. I doubt you could name a single Arab State that Iran has threatened.. I suppose you think they're threatening Oman or Jordan? Didn't think so.

@BasijiHunter

You honestly aren't bothered that Hitchens openly stated that ''I think Iran is going to be our next Military objective'' seriously? He's advocating a U.S Invasion of your Country and that doesn't even merit a response from you?

[BelfastAtheist]

@BasijiHunter

Wait, wait, wait..

I have to ask you this. Speaking (Presumably) as an Iranian Citizen, or just an Iranian - you seem to be quite a fan of Hitchens. Which is why I need to ask you; why aren't you bothered about his War Propaganda against your Country? He supports the lie that the Ayatollahs wish the use nuclear weaponry against Israel or even the U.S, when in reality they only want it as a detterent because the threatening Language the U.S is using.

[ElectricSexPants]

Iran should be broke up into ethnic enclaves. The Persians are a narrow minority.

[matako07]

Hitchens explains his intellectualized version of the Bush Doctrine.

@99999999988888888 If Iran would just get rid of islam nobody would care if they had nuclear energy or not!

[alfalfafalafelmafia]

@ThePoultrysolution

now!!!? Now he realized that Iran poses a threat!!!? Now he woke up after we deliberately handed over Iraq to the Mullahs with his support for the invasion!!!?

Why did he not talk about the Iranian threat prior to supporting the invasion of Iraq, which resulted in the certain and forseeable result of making Mullah-Iran stronger and "indispensable?"

Why didn't we first start with the theocratic Islamic republic Mr. Atheist?

You are as owned to your masters as can be.
