Wiesel's comments on the subject are for me forever marred by his absolute silence on anything Israel did or does to Palestinians and his active explicit support of illegal settlement.

Or, if not marred, I definitely consider him an example of "everyone is flawed and everyone's fear and damage sometimes make them do shitty things". And it certainly removes his status as an Unarguable Moral Authority.

So if anything I consider him a very good example of "the binary never holds up".
