1) Over #EdwardSaid, de Palestijns-Amerikaanse #literatuurwetenschapper, denker en voorvechter van de Palestijnse zaak. Hij werd bekend door zijn boek 'Orientalism’ (1978) waarin hij kritiek uit op de stereotype kijk van het Westen op de Oosterse wereld. Het #oriëntalisme van Said krijgt tot op de dag van vandaag bijval, maar ook kritiek. Zijn denken is actueel in de debatten die nu op het scherpst van de snede over #Israël en #Palestina worden gevoerd.🎧 #luistertip

'Terms like “quislings,” “Thermidor,” “Vichy,” and “submission” have circulated widely in articles denouncing #Columbia’s surrender, zeroing in on betrayal as the proper note to strike. But it is not really betrayal when those committing the action have no investment in the principles betrayed.'

"As a word and concept, 'terrorism’ has acquired an extraordinary status in American public discourse. It has displaced Communism as public enemy number one, although there are frequent efforts to tie the two together. It has spawned uses of language, rhetoric and argument that are frightening in their capacity for mobilizing
opinion, gaining legitimacy and provoking various sorts of murderous action."

As a word and concept, terrorism’ has acquired an extraordinary
status in American public discourse. It has displaced Communism
as public enemy number one, although there are frequent efforts to
tie the two together. It has spawned uses of language, rhetoric and
argument that are frightening in their capacity for mobilizing
opinion, gaining legitimacy and provoking various sorts of
murderous action. And it has imported and canonized an ideology
with origins in a distant conflict, which serves the purpose here of
institutionalizing the denial and avoidance of history. In short, the
elevation of terrorism to the status of a national security threat
(though more Americans drown in their bathtubs, are struck by
lightning or die in traffic accidents) has deflected careful scrutiny
of the government's domestic and foreign policies. Whether the
deflection will be longstanding or temporary remains to be seen,
but given the almost unconditional assent of the media,
intellectuals and policy-makers to the terrorist vogue, the
prospects for a return to a semblance of sanity are not
encouraging.

Joe Sacco's "Palestine" is a non-fiction graphic book that documents his experiences in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip during December 1991 and January 1992. The book includes an introduction by Edward Said and won the American Book Award in 1996.

"Sacco's detailed landscapes and expressionistic drawing style capture the horror and desperation of the occupation, made even more poignant in light of the ongoing genocide in Gaza."

After Oct. 7 the book sold out and was quickly reprinted by Fantagraphics to meet the high demand.

In the 20th C Westerners switched from viewing the Arab world (Orient) from a scholarly Arab perspective, to a Zionist (European colonial) one. Westerners today only see Arabs through a skewed Western lens, and a deeply hostile and distorted one at that.
