Hitchens Cut Open
Daniel sent me this article. It is Christopher Hitchens' account of finding out that a soldier who he inspired to enlist in the war in Iraq was killed by an IED. Hitchens goes on to meet the solider's family. It's a pretty amazing story of a man coming to terms with the consequences of his words, all the while not using that reckoning to make himself any bigger or proud.

He should write a story about me. I have encourage dozens of people to join the army-the army of God. None of them have died, on the contrary. All of them are truly living for the first time.
