Reidish kane-kotlas αρχή, inc. compares Schmitt and Heidegger on War.

[F]or all his ontologizing, Heidegger deliberately obfuscates ethical, economic, and political discussion, treating so directed complaint as misunderstanding him. Schmitt, as a philosopher entrenched in political thinking, thus seems rather distinct, if not somehow opposed to Heidegger.

I think the problem is in making a leap from ontology to ethics or political philosophy. I'm forever suspicious of attempts to read anything but opportunism into Heidegger's politics.  ¶ 9:11 PM
