‘Israel lost its humanity’. This is a very arguable statement. With the complicity of the majority of Israelis, what humanity has the Israeli state has shown since its establishment?
“Since when is the death of any person, even a bitter and cruel enemy,” asked Gideon Levy, “a reason to party?”
It has been a few cases throughout history. ‘Humanity’ is not an abstract concept shrouded in innocence and purity. Humanity exists in contexts and governed by different power relations.
