What’s happening in Gaza, the fact it goes on and on, day after day, massacre after massacre, ًis so horrific it’s hard to put into words, a world-changing crime against humanity facilitated and enabled by global leaders who should have fought with every last breath to stop it

'A British colonial army was defeated in the region in 1880. More than 120 years later, few officials in London knew anything about that history. Why was Britain going back?' @NorthAndrew on Helmand in @openDemocracy, from War & Peace & War https://t.co/pHE0BHCdsY

[Tamaz Murgulia @TamazMurgulia]

Just finished @NorthAndrew‘s War&Peace&War (lots of parallels there to what and how is happening now everywhere from Ukraine to Georgia), and next between @Shteyngart‘s Absurdistan and @yarotrof’s Our Enemies Will Vanish chose the latter. Sorry, Gary!

A delightful morning touring London bookshops with @NorthAndrew as he signs copies of War & Peace & War. I loved editing Andrew’s deep dive into Afghanistan. Read it to understand this amazing, complex country, on the anniversary of the West’s withdrawal from Kabul.
