Idan Landau – Did you learn anything? https://www.didyoulearnanything.net An archived blog about education, language, peace, and other fine things Mon, 26 Jun 2023 19:09:17 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.1.1 Chris Hedges: “Murder is not an Anomaly in War” https://www.didyoulearnanything.net/blog/2012/04/07/chris-hedges-murder-is-not-an-anomaly-in-war/ Sat, 07 Apr 2012 15:25:28 +0000 http://www.didyoulearnanything.net/?p=1974 Continue reading Chris Hedges: “Murder is not an Anomaly in War” →]]> I find myself, for once, at loss for words. Despite growing up in what is essentially a warzone, I have had the ridiculously good fortune of never experiencing the horror of war first hand. In a thoughtful and powerful piece of writing, Chris Hedges has managed to transport a small taste, which I can only implore you to read if you haven’t yet. And you’ll want to sit down first, I think.

Chris Hedges: Murder is not an Anomaly in War (TruthDig)

A Hebrew translation, along with some discussion, is available over at Idan Landau’s blog (his post alerted me to the existence of this piece. H/t.)

Meta comment: I haven’t been posting lately – these link posts don’t count – not for lack of ideas or words, but mainly because I’m spending a very big chunk of my waking hours in (academic) writing and having a hard time finding the time to properly formulate blog posts. I hope and assume that I’ll get posting again at some point soon, but no promises.
