Shooting an Elephant

An enemy is a person who feels hatred for, fosters harmful designs against, or engages in antagonistic activities against another; an adversary or opponent.In the story"shooting an elephant" the hatred between Burmese and British is explained how they used to treat each other.British were the colonial master who were exercising the most tyrannical nut on Burmese.Burmese considered British as there adversary always because they had occupied their territory and treated them very harshly.George Orwell was in Britishers force and they treated their service man like there servants that's why George Orwell hated Britishers too who forced him to exercise a tyrannical nut on burmese .It was an elephant who put him in a difficult situation where at one hand he didn't want to kill the elephant but the huge crowd behind him forced him to shoot him as he was equipped with a weapon.Burmese hated GeorgeOrwell too because he was a part of Britishers who were the colonial master.they used to call out him names spat on him.thats how they shared this kind of hatred .which lead them to annoy each other in every possible way.
