Mumbai Attacks: We Will Not be Divided
|
The whole world is reeling from the shock of the attacks in Mumbai.These attacks were aimed at all of us -- our people, our prosperity and our peace. But their top target was something else: our unity. If these attacks cause us to turn on each other in hatred and conflict, the terrorists will have won. They know that hatred and chaos feeds on division. That dividing the world -- religion against religion, country against country, region against region -- is their only way to disrupt society as a whole. Let's deny them that victory. We're launching a message to extremists on all sides, and our fellow citizens, one that will soon be published in newspapers across India and Pakistan. The message is that these tactics are failing -- that we are more united than ever. That we are determined to work together to stop violent extremism, and call our political and religous leaders to so the same. If millions of people sign it, our message will be unmistakable. Sign the message below
We citizens of India, and countries around the world, from all faiths, backgrounds and walks of life, declare with one voice that the terrorist attacks in Mumbai have not divided us, will not divide us, and that we stand together, as one people, against all violent extremists who shamefully target the innocent. We call upon all our political and religious leaders to come together at this moment, and take effective action to prevent the spread of violence.
