Christopher Hitchens is the former columnist for The Nation, putatively on the left, who in the late 1990s veered to the right to first argue against abortion, [1] and then turn on his former colleagues. Now, Hitchens is considered a neocon who supported the US war of aggression against Iraq, and even travelled to Iraq as an embedded journalist to cheer on the US troops. He now writes mostly for Vanity Fair and Slate. [2]
