It seems impossible for one to like Judith Butler after being tortured by her style of writing. (What the hell was she talking about?) But oddly, I do. She is a fascinating person. "We need a legal and political understanding of the right of the refugee, whereby no solution for one group produces a new class of refugees – you can’t solve a refugee problem by producing a new, potentially greater refugee problem". Hannah Arendt would agree absolutely agree with this because of her concern of the stateless people caused by the formation of nation state system. The formation of Israel simply created a vast number of new stateless people-- the Palestinians. I could not imagine how life is there. Depictions of Palestinians always break my heart.
