Introduction
USA victims of terrorism are extensively publicised in the Western
media. Their photos are shown, their relatives interviewed, their lives
mourned. On 11 September 2002, the first anniversary of the attacks in New York and Washington, people in London (UK) were instructed by our government to observe 2 minutes of silence.
This web site has no problem with mourning and honouring innocent
victims of violence. However, we believe that the majority of the
world’s victims of violence are ignored. Their pictures are never
shown, their names often unknown, their lives and deaths ignored.
