In a world where opponents, before naturally exterminating each other, are so intertwined in the abyss of total depreciation, there is a need to create new forms of absolute hostility. Hostility will develop to such an extent that it may no longer be possible to even speak of an enemy or hostility without both having previously been ostracized and condemned before the work of destruction begins.
Then destruction will become completely abstract and absolute. It no longer turns against any enemy, but serves only a so-called objective enforcement of supreme values, for which it is known that no price is too high. Only the renunciation of real hostility clears the way for the destructive work of absolute hostility.
In 1914, the peoples and governments of Europe stumbled into World War I without real hostility. Real hostility only arose from the war itself, which began as a conventional state war of international European law and ended with a civil, global war of the revolutionary hostility of classes.
Who will prevent the unforeseen creation, in a similar but infinitely improved manner, of countless new forms of hostility, the application of which presupposes the emergence of phenomena of a new guerrilla warfare? The theorist can do nothing but defend the concepts and call things by their names. The Theory of the Guerrilla converges with the concept of the Political, in the search for the real enemy and a new Law of the Earth.
