I'll pass on the older Edward Said hatchet job, but Reagan and Arafat are thoroughly Hitchened in slate. Came across these older obits after doing a bit of reading about what has been happening in Hitchens' long strange trip from the left to leftist neo-con. He was always one of the first people I'd read when a new issue of the Nation appeared. It's likely that he was another victim of the September 11 attacks.
