- Summary:
- "As the Israeli bombs stop raining on Gaza and, with them, the outrage that this recent chapter of the continuous siege on this small land of Palestinian territory triggered, the last thing that we should wish is that things "go back to normal." The normal is unacceptable, since it is made of the same violence than the bombings, only in a less spectacular manner. Throughout this text, I propose to use the oxymoronic phrase of "normal violence" in order to describe the (infra)structural subjection imposed on the Gaza inhabitants."-- provided by distributor.
