Regarding Israel and reenactment, on 22 February 2003 I (here at design-l) wrote:

A future chronosomatic note may concern itself with the Jewish psyche and it's relationship with reenactment, e.g., the contemporary state of Israel. With the Holocaust corresponding to the transverse colon, as do all contemporary genocidal purges, and, with the forthcoming end of assimilation in 2194, is today's Israel the ur-metabolic state?]
--excerpt from "apostasy is only half the story, etc."

also:
It seems logical that no reenactment occurs without an enactment occurring first...
reenactment's most inescapable limit is that it can never be as original as that which it reenacts.
--written 18 February 2000 in response to questions raised by Brian Carroll

[I just checked to see if A Civilian Occupation is available within Temple University's library system. There is one copy, and it's (surprisingly) at the Tyler School of Art. I'll try to borrow it tomorrow.]
