<nettime> Zizek on Putin's war game

Hi all

It is an obvious move to go to Zizek for soul, but he's always got something worthwhile to assert. This time a critique of the gigantic binary dynamics at play in this war. He has a new term "Hot Peace" - as 'hot peace' is about having 'normal Russia' selling oil and gas overseas, while he pummels "hotly" as it were at Ukraine. Also, speaks on remembering that the holocaust took place at a golden time for European modernity and civilization and on Putin's neo-fascist politics...the disappearance of dissenters within Russia, those brave enough to reject his state.

I cry inside today at the thought of a World War Three and truly hope that Joe holds out, this clear baiting by Putin to drive us into battle with him. It's so disgusting...
