Postmodern praise of uncertainty and display of other forms of intellectual helplessness will undoubtedly endear some girls, especially if it happens around the campfire after a couple of Belgian beers, but in reality it amounts to a plea for disengagement and self-immobilization.

The conflict between Israel and the Palestinian population is usually associated with complexity, but much of it is merely a smokescreen in order to discourage people from investigating its cause. In this way the myth is fed to the masses of a spiral of violence without beginning or end. This myth obviously suits the strongest party in this asymmetrical power conflict, namely apartheid-state Israel, which will undoubtedly persists in the targeted bombing of Gazan civilians (by most Israeli’s blatantly called ‘seed of Amalek’), despite of that.

Unfortunately, the same can be said of Desmet's sweettalk endeavour above, which is based on this myth. In this way, Desmet himself in fact actively contributes to the dehumanization that he claims to be against.

The superficial half-baked mysticism from Desmet, which will undoubtedly cater to the masses which on average don’t like bloodshed and have no clue either, isn't based on any substantial analysis and therefore only capable of pulling the wool over our eyes once more.
