Opinion

“It still baffles me that a leader that did her best, with undeniably good intentions, saved a minimum of 20,000 Kiwi lives, had her team shepherd the economy right through to November 2023 in a way where National inherited “better finances than expected”, all with one of the lowest debt to GDP levels in the OECD, as well as securing and keeping higher credit ratings in her tenure, and did her best to preserve water infrastructure in public hands, taking the political hits and death threats to herself and her family as graciously as anyone could, could have this level of reaction.”

Omar El Akkad’s confrontation of the West’s hypocrisy over the continuing genocide in GAZA. 

This is a book with an undercurrent of anger through it, but it’s not a book that shouts.

Instead, it’s a quietly convincing indictment of the West’s institutions and of its moral failings, and a thorough laying out of an argument about breaking away from the ideas and ideals we’ve held ourselves to.

Although, of course, it criticises right-wing institutions, one of the book’s biggest targets for critique is the Western liberal.
