On the contrary. I think both Wousters and I are quite aware of the
relevance of the situation in Israel/Palestine. What's important is that
there's no single "relevance" of the situation. One can read the situation
in terms of bio-political racism, in terms of Western imperialism, in terms
of Orientialism, in terms of the implications and applications of
micro-politics, in terms of the role of the intellectual, etc.
In my parody of Clifford, I likened his posts to articles about Britney
Spears' breast implants. This was not to say that Clifford's posts are
irrelevant, or the Britney Spears' breast implants are. Everything is
political. I'm interested in more politicization, and less information. I
don't care whether Britney Spears is currently a D cup or a C cup. I care
about what Britney Spears' breast implants reveal about the way in which
Beauty, Sexuality, Femininity, the Body, etc. are constructed in
contemporary discourse.
I would applaud Clifford if he'd make these kinds of analyses.
Otherwise, his posts are simply redundant additions to the morning papers.
Cheers
Nate
