The target? John Bolton who according to Monbiot was a principle architect of the invasion of Iraq.
For him
the great crime of the Iraq war has been normalised and domesticated.
So successful has this process of normalisation been that in three days’ time one of its perpetrators will be coming here - to Hay-on-Wye, the epicentre of polite society - to promote his book and sell some copies. I do not regret the fact that he is coming here - far from it - but I see it as a sign of the extent to which the great crime he helped to commit is viewed as an ordinary part of the political process.
So if you attending the festival,perhaps you should offer to help George out
