An Eid execution
There is something disturbing about that video. About the taunts hurled by witnesses, about the jostling, the mood, the atmosphere is undignified. The man is being hanged. There is a time and a moment for a bit of dignity. Yes, dignity even for a murderer. Yes, dignity even for a mass murderer. Why? Because that display of dignity is what separates 'us' from 'them'. The respect that we show when others do not, the dignity we display when others do not, the adherence to rules and regulations, to guidelines and decorum, that is what differentiates us from them. The line is otherwise blurred. In the absence of all that, what separates the executioner from the executioned?
