Poetic Fisking

...of Fisk's latest anti-British propaganda at Tim Blair's site:
Comment #23--

Half a truth, half a truth,
Half a truth onward,
There in the valley of Death
Strode the Fisk blunderer.
‘Forward, the Lightweight Brigade!
Type for Talibs’ he said:
Into the valley of Death
Strode the Fisk blunderer.


Followed immediately by #24:

"If you’re wounded and left on Afghanistans plains
And the women come out to cut up your remains
First shoot Robert Fisk, and then blow out your brains
And go to your God like a soldier”.


As a fan of both Tennyson and Kipling, I've got to enjoy these!
