MUMBAI: WE WILL NOT BE DIVIDED

The whole world is reeling from the shock of the attacks in Mumbai.
These attacks were aimed at 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. They also know that as radical extremists, their only hope of disrupting society as a whole is turning the rest of us against each other.

Let's deny them that victory. We're launching a message to extremists on all sides, and our fellow citizens, one that will be published in newspapers across India and Pakistan and delivered to our political leaders within one week. The message is that these tactics have failed and we are more united than ever. And we are determined to work together to stop violent extremism, and call on our political and religous leaders to so the same. If hundreds of thousands of people sign it, our message will be unmistakable.
