Alfredo -- Very interesting listening.
One might believe that they are all very reasonable men, until you get to the very end of the video where they listen to Hitch argue that the end of world civilization is imminent unless the Islamic world is reformed of its unacceptable beliefs, a reformation which he sees as only being effectively pursued by American military force. His colleagues are either struck speechless or they are in agreement. The truly unacceptable belief of Islam, as far as I can tell, is Jihad, the doctrine that beliefs which endanger the faithful may need to be answered with force.
