Profane Wars

Abstract

According to the author of this paper, the sinister acts perpetrated by bodies transformed in weapons are not linked with any religious meaning according to which the liberation from the polluted body prison or from the religious community facing the undervaluation or disrespect of the other could drive towards a self-killing and the mass killing of innocent civilians. The fundamentalist who destroyed the Twin Towers have very unholy goals, as any other political actor struggling in the political arena, masked and hide behind the religious rhetoric. They are nihilistic subjects considering the ends they pursue but fundamentalist radicals considering the media they use to fulfil such ends.
