This week has seen the 40th anniversaries of Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and the start of the Six Day War. They came out within 24 hours of each other. The irony is not lost on me.
I don't know what the Arab nations think of Sergeant Pepper, but Jerry Timmins, head of Africa and Middle East for the BBC World Service, reports that they don't like referring to the Six Day War as a "war". They prefer to use the term ... "setback".
