of man's inhumanity to man, not just man's inhumanity to Jews
Wait a minute: doesn't man's inhumanity to man by definition include 'man's inhumanity to Jews'? What about also adding 'Jews' inhumanity to man', as in this context we are clearly talking about what has been going on in Palestine?

I think he means inhuman behavior in all instances, not simply directed against the Jews during WW2.

Thanx, ratilfar. Someone in need of explanations on the article should ask.

The usage of language in every walk of life is of supreme human importance. Words used like pieces of lego can kill and cause immense suffering. "Language and Silence" by George Steiner remains a good read. Ironically, not many realise that "Animal Farm" is a book about the treachery and tyranny of language. A respect for humanity requires a respect for language: debate about zionism, global inhumanity, all that is human, perhaps requires the re-thinking of thinking: this always was and always will be the case.
