Remigration

Another topic I have “touched upon” is “remigration.” This word is a neologism, which means coming back to where you have been driven out.I've always said that I wanted a smooth ride, but I couldn't help rocking the boat. Rocking seems to be in my genes.

Remarkable People

On the road I have traveled, I have met many remarkable people. First I name my friend and mentor the late Emile Capouya. “Mike” encouraged me over the years and published two of my books in New York.

Vienna Today

Returning to my birthplace has given me a unique opportunity of writing on Third Reich Revisionism. This topic interlinks with Violence under the Guise of Art like pieces of a puzzle to reveal how the past manifests itself in the present.

Virginia Tech Massacre

On April 16, 2007 Seung-Hui Cho a student at Virginia Tech University in Blacksburg, VA, massacred 32 students and teachers before taking his own life.

This is his motivation according to his manifesto: “Your Mercedes wasn’t enough, you brats! Your golden necklaces weren’t enough, you snobs. Your trust funds wasn’t enough. Your vodka and cognac wasn’t enough. All your debaucheries weren’t enough. Those weren’t enough to fulfill your hedonistic needs. You had everything.”

Thus, according to some, Cho thought that “by murdering he had to take action against” capitalistic greed and exploitation. The assassinated students and teachers were the means.
