Caroline Glick: Why I won"t miss Christopher Hitchens

Why I won"t miss Christopher Hitchens http://www.carolineglick.com/e/2011/12/christopher-hitchens-is-still.php

I have read several appreciations of Hitchens written by conservatives and neo-conservatives who knew him and appreciated his transformation from a man of the left into a man of the right since the US invasion of Iraq.

All of these essays, like the generous conservative swooning over Hitchens for the better part of the last ten years makes me uneasy. For all of his personal transformation, there is one prejudice that I don't think Hitchens every abandoned and that is his anti-Semitism.
