If anyone is still interested in Iraq they should read Ali Allawi’s The Occupation of Iraq: Winning the War, Losing the Peace; everybody cops a spray, which is as it should be. Also, Waleed Aly’s People Like Us, an incredibly thoughtful dissection of the inanities surrounding public discussion of Muslims in Australia. The only reading I will be doing over the holidays will be the instruction booklets for my children’s Christmas presents.
