Notes

1. An earlier version of this article was presented at the CSAA 2010 Conference, Byron Bay, Australia, December 2010. I am grateful to the editors of this special issue and the anonymous reviewers of this article. Their insightful and useful feedback has helped me to improve this article through revision. I am also grateful to Talking Heads and Todd Solondz for inspiration in relation to the title.

2. By ‘queer’ I mean to suggest that the perspective I employ in this article reads not only against the grain of normative expectations in relation to sexuality and gender, but that it also reads against the grain in terms of normative expectations in relation to citizenship.

3. Here the term ‘War Machine’ is taken from Puar, as distinct from Deleuze and Guattari's concept.

4. I am grateful to Nora Kenney for bringing this work to my attention.

5. I am grateful to Greg Noble for pressing me to think more about this point.

6. I am grateful to an anonymous reviewer for pressing me to think more about these points.
