An enemy relation is not reducible to hostility or enmity.

Evidence

Freud writes that “the impulses which [are] expressed towards an enemy are not solely hostile” (39/G330). Barely mentioning the word “enemy,” but attending to countless instances of Feindseligkeit, hostility, Freud comes perhaps closest to writing a history of the enemy-a history that, Freud shows, is not reducible to a history of enmity or hostility. — Gil Anidjar, The Jew, the Arab, 435
