Quote by Blade Seventh

“Bullets bounced off his obsidian-hardened body, a body forged to withstand even nuclear weapons. Yet, an ache gnawed at him, slicing through the armour of his heartless, battle-worn shell. No words, no weapon, could harm what was forged, but the pain of their sacrifice, especially hers, remained—eternally engraved within his soul.”

“The planes fly over and drop their horrible death every day. You learn to live with the sound… Do you believe children up there who see their parents, see each other, turned into meat and bone, you think they’re gonna grow up and accept peace? You think they won’t attack compounders in the envelope from now until forever? We are making terrorists every day, thousands of them! This is what they want… They want to turn every red into a terrorist, every rez into hell. They will get their wish, on the spirit they’ll get their wish! …Ozuye killed my mom. They killed my best friend. I will always keep that hatred. …But I can’t deny what I feel. They are people, like you, made violent.”

“In any war, bombing monuments of heritage and culture tells your enemy you are going for their identity - by destroying the very things that make them who they were. The Germans and the Brits did this to each other in World War II, the most famous example being the Baedeker Raids carried out by the Luftwaffe. Using the popular Baedeker's Guide to Great Britain, the Germans identified 'every building in Britain with three-stars', the top sites of British heritage and culture - and then bombed [...] them. This is why the Serbs went for the Gazi Husrevbeg Mosque. Attacks of this nature, labelled 'cultural genocide' by one Harvard observer, became a Serb hallmark during the war that devastated the country between April 1992 and December 1995.”

“What is formed and framed through the technological grasp and circulation of the visual and discursive dimensions of war? This grasping and circulation is already an interpretive manoeuvre, a way of giving an account of whose life is a life, and whose life is effectively transformed into an instrument, a target, or a number, or is affected with only a trace remaining or none at all.”
