Bob Brown: World has its arms around London

Wednesday, July 13, 2005 - 10:00

Greens media release issued on July 8.

The whole world has its arms around London, Greens Senator Bob Brown said today. "That is why the terrorists will fail. The global goodness of the human community is in London with the innocent victims.

"With it is a worldwide disquiet with the murderers. If they believe bloodshed will cower democracy, their belief will be blighted.

"This useless carnage will strengthen democracy's role in lifting human dignity and fairness around the world, not least against myopic religious extremism", Senator Brown said.
