ABSTRACT
Recently, a news source indicated that military camps in Israel were luring foreign and national tourists. These "terror camps", geographically scattered through Israel and the West Bank, offered a morbid spectacle that in fact evinced some risk-taking on the part of the tourists. Guy Debord was one of the pioneers who envisaged the role of spectacle in contemporary society. Popular opinion precludes the possibility that terrorists are frustrated persons who are motivated emotionally. A critical position around post-conflict destinations was excellently described by J. L. Comaroff and J. Comaroff, who alerted us to the risk of heritage consumption in lands of previous hostility and conflict. At first glimpse, the theory of Thana-Capitalism reminds us that the risk society was replaced by a new stage of production, where death plays a leading role as the main exchanged commodity. Lastly, the Rise of Thana-Capitalism and Tourism was positively received by scholars although, being honest, it was widely criticized too.
