POETRY AGAINST TERROR: A tribute to the victims of terrorism (Poetry of Witness Book 1) By Fabrizio Frosini Kindle Edition POETRY AGAINST TERROR: A tribute to the victims of terrorism (Poetry of Witness Book 1) Terrorism, which is one of the most important topics in the world today, refers to any act designed to cause terror by means of violence or the threat of violence. Terrorism is fundamentally political and emotionally charged, because it is meant to instill fear within, and thereby intimidate people, an entire country or even the whole world. Terrorism is certainly frightening, but the best way we can fight it is by living our lives without terror. At the United Nations webpage on terrorism, we can read: Countering this scourge is in the interest of all nations and the issue has been on the agenda of the United Nations for decades. Now we can understand why 64 Poets from 42 different countries have written a letter to the Secretary General of the United Nations, and to the Presidents of each of the countries whence they come from. As it is stated in the letter to Mr Ban Ki moon: “Through the poems, we, the poets, wish to express our unanimous desire for universal peace and to add our voice to those other unequivocal voices at the United Nations who say NO to the scourge of terrorism”. It is a symbolic gesture, but it highlights their commitment as Poets against Terror.

I started the project, but it is a collective book: a compilation of poems written by 64 poets from 42 different countries from all over the world, who believe in peace and brotherhood, and are against any kind of violence —against any kind of terror. Some other voices of the Poets: — This project is about compassion for the victims of terrorism, its a celebration of a simple equation: violence = violence ; peace = peace. We have made it clear, we are not debating causes, but mourning a particular effect which is the intentional murder of innocents. (Daniel Brick, USA) — As someone born in Sri Lanka, a country that will always be remembered as the birth place of the suicide bombing, I can only offer my own tears to lessen the pain and to heal from this terrible plague and my own sweat to lay one brick to build a universal home for peace. (Dilantha Gunawardana, Sri Lanka) — Наши потери мучительны, но террор это инструмент манипуляции через запугивание, поэтому нам следует искать истинные причины, а не реагировать слепо. Галина Итальянская. Our losses are painful, but terror is a tool of manipulation via frightening, so we should search for the true reasons and not react blindly. (Galina Italyanskaya, Росси́я – Russia) — The most difficult aspect to accept about all the senseless violence in the world is the fact that we are doi
