	Are my criticisms of Peter Hitchens unfair?
		Hitchens thinks that the immigration is driven solely by welfare policies which destroyed the will and ability of the British working class to work, and which created a need for more immigrants.
		Hitchens thinks the problem is caused by the left's lack of belief in human sameness and non-discrimination--when, of course, the belief in human sameness and non-discrimination is the very reason for the immigration and for Britain's total lack of the moral will to reduce or end it.
		Peter Hitchens will continue to direct his fiery darts, not at Britain's open immigration policy, but, on one hand, at leftist multiculturalists, and, on the other hand, at real conservatives who think that mass non-European immigration into Britain should never have happened in the first place and should be stopped.

		Hitchens' most potent revelation is his description of the marked contrast with the funeral of Lady Diana, when an outpouring of emotion swept over the nation in torrents.
		Hitchens correctly highlights Churchill's death as the point when the Britain of old, the Britain whose values it's gallant soldiers defended against the menaces of Hitler and the Kaiser, began to be seriously undermined by the politically-correct leftists.
		Hitchens is quite frank in admitting the British national spirit has lost its dynamo, because of the assent of the Americans on the world stage, which has become a political, cultural and economic superpower.

	The American Enterprise: Peter Hitchens
		The British expatriate Christopher Hitchens is one of America's most coruscant essayists; brother Peter, a Trotskyite turned Tory, has emerged as one of England's sharpest critics of the United Kingdom's absorption into the European Union.
		Peter, a columnist for the Mail on Sunday, is the author of The Abolition of Britain, an elegy for a land which he believes to be disappearing under the assault of junk culture, sexual immorality, and European homogenization.
		HITCHENS: The E.U. is a top-down creation, an elitist idea with its roots in the branch of European social democracy whose features were internationalism, a loathing of the nation-state, a belief in the benevolent intervention of the state in almost all areas of life, and a belief that capitalism untamed was necessarily evil.

		Peter might relish in his 'firm, consistent' opposition to terrorism 'in all its guises', but Christopher sometimes can't bring himself even to write the word down - describing the 'use and abuse of the word terrorism' as traditionally 'a way of criminalising the left and revolution'.

	Peter Hitchens - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hitchens opposed the Iraq War on the grounds that it was not in the interests of either Britain or of the United States, but does not associate himself with the Left's campaign against the war, as he is a strong supporter of the State of Israel.
		Hitchens deplores the decline of religious faith and the serial 'attacks' on the institution of marriage by the state and by capitalism.
		Hitchens has expressed considerable contempt for David Cameron, the current Conservative Party leader, regarding him as a member of the "liberal elite" with little conception of the challenges facing modern Britain, and whose social, educational and foreign policies are indistinguishable from those of Tony Blair.

	Christopher Hitchens - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hitchens was deeply shocked by the fatwa (February 14, 1989), against his longtime friend Salman Rushdie, and he became increasingly concerned by the dangers of what he called "theocratic fascism" or "fascism with an Islamic face": radical Islamists who supported the fatwa against Rushdie and sought the recreation of the medieval caliphate.
		Hitchens did use the term "Islamic Fascism" for an article he wrote for The Nation, shortly after 9/11 (although the phrase is used earlier than that, i.e., in The Washington Post on 13 January 1979; it also appears to have been used by secularists in Turkey and Afghanistan to describe their opponents).
		Hitchens argued that the choice in Yugoslavia was between what he perceived as multi-ethnic plural democracy in Bosnia and fascistic, religiously inspired ethnic cleansing driven by Slobodan Milošević; although some strategists, such as Yossef Bodansky, argue that this position is counterproductive, given the presence in Bosnia of Islamic fundamentalist militia [13].

		In this respect a decisive event for Hitchens was the 1997 General Election in Britain which brought to power the Labour Party with Tony Blair at their head, much as the USA 1992 election brought in the Democrats and Clinton.
		Hitchens' conclusion is named "Chainsaw Massacre" after the American film, to suggest how the new Britons have, as it were, taken chainsaws to cut down the entire forest of noble trees that made up the old Britain.
		However, Hitchens is rather more anxious for the future than he is nostalgic for the past, so he is angry at the present degradation of Britain with a sharpness giving rise to hundreds of quotable quotes.

	Review - Farewell, England (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Hitchens beautifully dissects both events, comparing the maudlin chic of 1997 with the dignified stiff upper lip of 1965 and keenly illustrating, with this one striking example, the fundamental changes that have occurred in the British moral sensibility over the last 35 years.
		Hitchens observes that "the established church was part of the old order, rural, aristocratic, hierarchical, which was smashed to pieces at the Battle of the Somme" in World War I. The Anglican Church never fully recovered from the Great War and continued to lose ground over the years as Britain became more urban and cosmopolitan.
		As Hitchens concludes, the New Britain—young, ignorant, conformist, sexually promiscuous, dismissive of tradition, and unable even to begin to understand the world of its grandfathers—is now in the ascendant; and the Old Britain—elderly, "dying, treasuring values and ideas which stretch back into the misty past" is in eclipse.
