Wole Soyinka Reminds Me of Oriana Fallaci

Oriana Fallaci was an eloquent, acerbic writer.  I enjoyed her vitriol, immensely.  Tunku Varadarajan recently interviewed Wole Soyinka, and his direct responses rival Fallaci’s in eloquence, acerbity and vitriol.  The interview is titled Wole Soyinka’s British Problem.  A fine quote from the interview.

“We should assemble all those who are pure and cannot abide other faiths, put them all in rockets, and fire them into space.”
