In the news

Dialogue is key, and dehumanizing one another only furthers conflict.

^^ Agree completely, but:

This sort of language makes me uncomfortable, Israel is not a person. I assume you mean "those few who are in charge in Israel", but it could also be taken as "everyone who lives in Israel, collectively".

^this. There's far too much "they did this" and "their actions" (from far too many writers) when describing the actions of a minority or the actions of a state that are supported by only a minority of its population.
