What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof.

Can't watch this in the UK :(
I saw the original event live on FORA.tv and have 30 days' access, but it would be good to be able to watch this summary at a later date, or for others who missed the original.
Not visible in UK???
I can't watch the video here in Britain :( Any chance you can make the video watchable for us here.
I'm in the Channel Islands, and it is viewable here.
To view in the UK, download and run the Hotspot shield filter
The event is hosted in the UK but not available in the UK...that makes sense...
Someone on FB suggested this for UK viewers www.ktunnel.com, Go to this site, scroll down until you can see the address bar, paste youtube link for vid. Uncheck "remove scripts" above address bar and voila.
@RogerH "Not visible in UK"...priceless, the island is at least for a nanomoment a province.
It'll be on Current TV in the UK.
What a curioes introduction by Stephen Fry! He states that he and Hitchens are “both Jewish on their mothers’ side – the side that counts”. This is an attribute that voiced by gentiles is viewed as anti-Semitic and on this occasion, wholly anti-Hitchens. That whether or not you are a believer, and in Hitchens’ case his non-belief has led him to write vitriolic volumes on the poison of religion, “once a Jew always a Jew”!
