GENOCIDE DISAPPOINTMENT


If you read nothing else today, read Theodore Dalrymple's "Why Intellectuals Like Genocide" -- it's his take on the intellectual left's reaction to Keith Windschuttle's "The Fabrication of Aboriginal History".

Very interesting, Becky. Food for thought.

People don't like finding out they might be wrong. Particularly if they have built their careers on the basis that "such and such" has happened. Sometimes people are just like little kids - figuratively, they put their hands over their eyes and say "It's not true! I hate you!" rather than taking on board criticism.
