As Baghdad is hit by the second wave of bombings in less than a week, we speak to former counterinsurgency official David Kilcullen about political failures in the Iraqi capital & the lessons that can be learned from Colombia's battle with the FARC guerrillas. Also: criticism of the Labour Party's report into alleged anti-semitism at Oxford University Student Club, and the recreation of a historic moment when Bob Dylan came to Manchester.
