Malcom, the question of terrors and terrorisms (and of related errors and
errorisms) where we of necessity begin thinking these in the very middle of
their topicalities and embrace (we are both sub-ject to such, terrorised,
and they remain a subject for our ruminations) involves such a confusion and
complexity that it seems necessary (to me) for any discussion to proceed,
without too much initial error, we ought to try and ask what the heck
terror(ism) is without merely and only resorting to providing
question-provoking examples to illustrate and argue it… I remember
somewhere Heidegger asks as to the nature of (technological) pain… as a
question (he) left unanswered. Further, perhaps questions of pro/contra are
part of the confusioning and might enter later once we have thought terror
itself.
