Tribute to the late Christopher Hitchens by Oz ABC Late Night Live

Christopher Hitchens will always be remembered as a libertarian socialist atheist who changed sides to support the US Alliance war in Iraq that since 2003 has been associated with 1.5 million violent Iraqi deaths (an estimate based on the findings of top US medical epidemiologists and supported by findings of the UK ORB commercial polling organization; see US Just Foreign Policy); 1.3 million avoidable deaths from war-imposed deprivation; 0.8 million under-5 infant deaths, 90% avoidable and due to US Alliance war crimes; and 3-4 million refugees - an Iraqi Holocaust and an Iraqi Genocide as defined by Article 2 of the UN Genocide Convention. Sanctions and war on Iraq since 1990 have been associated with 1.7 million violent Iraqi deaths, 2.9 avoidable deaths from war- and sanctions-imposed deprivation and 2.0 million under-5 infant deaths (see "Iraqi Holocaust, Iraqi Genocide"). Yet ABC and Murdoch employee Phillip Adams runs a program today saying that wars don't kill many people these days.

Back in 1996 there was a conservative US TV interviewer Lesley Stahl decent enough to ask Madeleine Albright on CBS 60 Minutes about the half a million Iraqi children estimated to have died under 6 years of Sanctions (to which Albright replied "I think the price was worth it"). These days in the racsit, genocidal, neo-fascist Western Murdochracies and Lobbyocracies there is almost nobody in the Mainstream media except for John Pilger to ask the hard questions.

As for Julius Streicher of Der Stuermer notoriety, he was hanged in 1946 in Nuremberg as a Nazi propagandist (as was William Joyce, Lord Haw Haw, by the British). They should not be hanged, imprisoned or fined, but the Mainstream media "journalists" who have almost all totally ignored the 12 million war-related deaths in the post-1990 US Alliance Muslim Holocaust and Muslim Genocide should be exposed for what they are (for some outrageous details Google "ABC Censorship" - I am writing a book on the subject-, "Censorship by The Age" , "Mainstream media lying"., "Muslim Holocaust, Muslim Genocide").

The prevalent Western media, politician, and academic holocaust ignoring is worse than utterly repugnant holocaust denial because at least the latter admits of public discussion.
