Intressant, men har inte även Dostojevskijs antisemitism sådana inslag? Mot det ryska folket med sina historiska rötter sätts de rotlösa parasiterna, som bär på den moderna världen.... ungefär så tolkar jag honom, jag har bara läst enskilda citat här och där. Det påstås ju ibland att Dostojevskij formulerade den moderna antisemitismen.
I de här anteckningsböckerna som du nämner i första inlägget så finns citatet nedan. Här talar Heidegger om behovet att utse, eller t.o.m. skapa en fiende som sedan ska förintas [völligen Vernichtung].
Från Emmanuel Faye, Heidegger, The Introduction of Nazism into Philosophy in Light of the Unpublished Seminars of 1933-1935, translated by Michael B. Smith, foreword by Tom Rockmore [Yale University Press].
"The enemy [Feind] is one who poses an essential [wesentliche] threat to the existence of the people [des Daseins des Volkes] and its members. The enemy is not necessarily the outside enemy, and the outside enemy is not necessarily the most dangerous. It may even appear that there is no enemy at all. The root requirement is then to find the enemy, to bring him to light or even to create him [oder gar erst zu schaffen], in order that there may be that standing up to the enemy, and that existence not become apathetic [und das Dasein nicht stumpf werde]. The enemy may have grafted himself onto the innermost root of the existence of a people, and oppose the latter's ownmost essence [eigenem Wesen], acting contrary to it. All the keener and harsher and more difficult is then the struggle, for only a very small part of the struggle consists in mutual blows; it is often much harder and more exhausting to seek out the enemy as such, and to lead him to reveal himself, to avoid nuturing illusions about him, to remain ready to attack, to cultivate and increase constant preparedness and to initiate the attack on a long-term basis, with the goal of total extermination [völligen Vernichtung]."
Martin Heidegger [quoted by Emmanuel Faye, ibid., p.168, German text, p.376, note 47, boldface added]
