Today just after 11.00 AM, I hope to join .@iromg Mike Graham on .@talktv and .@talkradio to discuss the deepening crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

@fiskorama. Of course you haven't. It would be the product of negotiations in which, by the nature of the war, the principals would be Russia and the USA, the actual combatants — PolitiTweet.org

.@peteymagic2000. I think it fair to say that I engage more with critics than most people in my position. Obviously I have limits, but I do like to give everyone a chance to behave reasonably. — PolitiTweet.org

@paul116413823 I like to think I am quite vigilant against such threats to liberty (the only way to keep such liberty) See my 2003 book 'The Abolition of Liberty'. But obviously yes, we do live in a comparatively free country. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I don't see how a confession of ignorance can be a lie @truthshiner. After nearly 50 years as a journalist, I prefer not to believe *anything* put out by *any* source of official propaganda,unless it can be independently verified. If you wish to be credulous, that is your affair. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@hammerofcranmer. I understood that he *used* to be but that they removed his name. I'd be delighted to see evidence that his name is back where it should be. — PolitiTweet.org

My critics speak. Against such defamatory bilge I shall continue to argue with reason, fact and civility . — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

But .@chrisdyork, I would ask you which bit of Kremlin propaganda resembles these (central) words of mine in the article you link here :'Putin’s decision to respond to it with an invasion was not just a crime. It was a terrible mistake.' You do talk bilge, quite often. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

2/2 .@chrisyork. Once again, you say you are a journalist. In a free society, that means a person who examines, independently, what he or she is told by authority. It does *not* mean a person who attacks fellow-journalists for doing so. You must decide what you actually are. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

1/2 .@chrisdyork. It does not. Why do *you* dismiss any dissent from Western official positions in this personally insulting, thought police fashion? Are you protecting your closed mind against thought and dissent? This is usually the sign of a person unsure of his own position. — PolitiTweet.org

Goodnight grown-ups, everywhere. — PolitiTweet.org

@tubewayarmy29. Sanctions in practice hurt only the innocent. I'm against them everywhere. The flow of weapons to Ukraine has provided nothing but continued death and ruin. How many other people do you wish to become corpses or refugees? So brave, calling for the deaths of others — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Why? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I have no idea. I know nothing of Putin's intentions and cannot rely on state-sponsored reports of the military situation, from either side. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Yes, @coliveroromwell, I think you may be right. The systematic slander and misrepresentation of opponents, far from being a shameful descent into dishonesty, is now regarded by many as a legitimate approach to debate. Let us not sink to this. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@sanchezwoppo I try very hard indeed to avoid this. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@chrisdyork. Btw, I do not say Ukraine is powerful. Ukraine is a corrupt and ill-governed country with a weak military. But it has extremely powerful allies, especially the world's greatest military superpower. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I am trying to work out if @chrisdyork is even more impenetrable than @louisemensch and @johnsweeneyliar. He thinks that if he makes up an opinion and attributes it to me, that this means I hold that opinion. Ho does one cope with this? — PolitiTweet.org
