Rough Music: Blair, Bombs, Baghdad, London, Terror is a 2005 book by British-Pakistani writer, journalist, political activist and historian Tariq Ali.

Synopsis[edit]

The book is a reaction to the 7 July 2005 London bombings, which Ali describes as "murderous mayhem that Blair's war has sown in Iraq". The book criticises perceived attacks on civil liberties. He invokes "great dissenters" of the past and calls for "political resistance, within Parliament and without".[1][non-primary source needed]

Reception[edit]

The book was reviewed in the peer-reviewed academic journal Current Issues in Criminal Justice[2] and Arena magazine.[3]
