The answer is A.People were separated and alienated.The wall was an offense  to humanity because it pointed out that there was a need to perform a bisection.People could not choose where to be, if on one side or the other and that was the gratest insult of all, the loss of freedom .In adition ,feelings, bonds, loyalties were not taken into account.The wall was a picture of division in the world and that was offensive for every inhabitant who was segregated from what they  loved.It is difficult to have everyone sharing an ideology, religion or an opinion but building a wall to show a difference was outrageous.
