JAMES LILEKS: “Of course, one could make the case that the greatest threats to the freedoms of the West are posed by the head-choppers, plane-exploders, their many merry supporters, and the nuke-seeking state that supports them. . . . But don’t expect the artists to make the case. They saw what happened to that Theo Van Gogh fellow. They take the easy way out, these brave souls; they’ll perform ‘The Diary of Anne Frank,’ but only because now some people think it has a happy ending. They cradle their illusions like a big dead pig, singing them lullabies.”
