Letter to a terrorist

Dear Mr. Terrorist,

It was an emotional day for a lot of us yesterday. Like me, i'm sure many others went thru feelings of sadness, regret, which turned into anger and finally ended with resolve. Tears were shed. Innocent lives were cruelly and thoughtlessly taken away far too soon. There were no opportunities to say goodbye, no opportunities for the last smile, the final hug.

But do you wanna know something? Well, in case you still havent realised it yet BUT YOU HAVE FAILED!!!!!!

Here's a list of reasons why i say so:-

You tried to put terror in our lives - but we all came out, unafraid, as we have done before 7/7/05 and after 7/7/05.

You tried to disrupt our lives by breaking us down - but we ended up being stronger, and carried each other.

You tried to turn us against the governments that are against your ideology - but we ended up standing by them.

You tried to elicit sympathy for your cause - but you only succeeded in revealing that you are heartless, cruel, and evil person, and no religion or political thinking can ever justify your despicable acts.

You tried to end up in a better place - but we all know where you are at this point of time.

WE ARE NOT AFRAID!!!










"Although the intention of those who carried out these evil acts was to stir up hatred and set people against each other, they have had precisely the opposite effect. Instead of division, people have been drawn together in a determination to find a deeper practice of common values, not least the values of tolerance, trust and compassion."
