    The Rain On the Second Plane Falls Mainly on Martin Amis

    http://aaronovitch.blogspot.com/2008/04/rain-on-second-plane...

    The first is not particularly at issue here, the second I think explains his choice of target (Mart's book is chock full of saloon-bar atheism cropped from Hitch) and the third explains why he scores so many wounding hits. I've argued here and elsewhere that Decent support for Israel is skin-deep; what I perhaps didn't notice enough is that in a lot of cases their support for America and Britain isn't much deeper when they are considered as actual countries rather than rhetorical devices. There is a

    debates that are currently exercising the blogetariat: David Edgar's response to David Mamet's desertion from "brain-dead liberalism", Marko Attila Hoare's claim that the defining axis in politics today is West v anti-West not left v right, and the premature announcement of the demise of the Euston Manifesto. On the on-going debate, more recent key texts include: Shuggy's attack on Marko's use of the word lumpen, Marko's irnonic mea culpa, Shuggy's rejoinder, Waterloo Sunset's mano-a-mano with Marko

    Whatever Happened To David Aaronovitch?

    Euston Manifesto demise, its not as if I miss his 'muscular liberalism' but he did write decent articles in defence of new Labour against the media misinformation onslaught. I wonder, was Murdoch's 'purchase' of Aaronovitch from the Guardian group, a typical case of market

    Car crash blogging from Eustonia

    the rest of us are far too common; no different from the Spartacist League or the Workers Revolutionary Party. That’s an interesting if unoriginal use of demonising rhetorical devices. Now say what you will about Daniel Davies, but that part of his criticism of certain Euston Manifesto signatories is highly accurate. Other drink-soaked ones can speak for themselves.
