The courteous banality of evil

I won’t have much time to write today, due to meetings and my class this evening. But here for your edification is the full BBC interview with Bashar al Asad:

Listen and weep. Note not only the content, but the reasonable and courteous tone combined with incredible lies. The courteous banality of evil.

PS: The Syrian government is proud of this interview and published the text. I assume it is an accurate rendition, but I have checked.
