The above photo was taken in Sarajevo in 1941, showing a Muslim woman walking with her Jewish neighbor and covering her yellow star with her veil. |
In light of the tragic events in Sydney, it's worth remembering the adage.
This reflection doesn't mask the horror of the events, but it does acknowledge the basic compassion that dwells in the hearts of average Australians.
I'm referring of course, to #illridewith you.
This phenomenon - spontaneous - not organised, indicates that rationality and compassion always trumps fear and xenophobia.
Something similar happened in Sarajevo in 1941 - see photo.

Care to comment on the rumour that "I'll ride with you" is based on bullshit?
The conflict entrepreneurs are seriously ticked off by any show of human compassion, so they're doing their absolute best to discredit it.
The origin of the phenomenon is irrelevant.
The triumph of the human spirit that it reveals is what counts. Australians are, at heart, generous and courageous people. Celebrate that.
The origin of the phenomenon is irrelevant.....so in the religion of global warming that is the over riding argument when any one voices an alternative view in relation to the reasons for climatic conditions.
Um - wondering what #illridewithyou has to do with global warming.
Wait - silly me!
Of course....they're both part of that great worldwide left wing/communist/socialist conspiracy.
"Wait-silly me!".....well you got that part right.
Not my problem if you're too thick to recognise sarcasm.
