When faced with acts of hatred the way forward is to respond with acts of love. From Porto to Warsaw, this is just what our community did in the face of the tragic events which took place in Paris. 540,244 messages of solidarity came pouring in, for all the victims of terror worldwide. Together we mourned the victims, and they will not be forgotten.

Of the many messages that came in, one in particular prompts reflection on Paris attacks and everything that followed. Julia from Austria writes:

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Israel, Turkey and wherever people try to rule with fear. Now I know. Just for a second and I know my fear is nothing. Still I know and I am sorry. This fear is why one leaves home and friends. Searching for a place of peace. I hope we can build one together."

Peace. It can't be taken for granted. Millions of people worldwide live in fear of violence and terror on a daily basis. And in response to the violence which took place in Paris, there will now be more violence. More deaths of innocent civilians. More people being forced to flee their homes in order to survive.

The European project was built to ensure peace. Together, the WeMove.EU community, continues to fight for our values of peace, democracy, and freedom in Europe and worldwid.

the people of Paris and victims of terror worldwide

A message of solidarity

As European people, we are shocked, saddened and in deep mourning after the terrorist attacks in Paris. We stand in solidarity with the victims’ families, friends and loved ones.

We express the same solidarity to all of the victims of IS across the world including those in Ankara, Beirut, Syria and Iraq, and to all the refugees forced to flee their homes to escape the very terror that hit Paris.

Today, we stand together for peace. We stand together for liberté, égalité, fraternité.

We will publish this text in the next days as an ad in Le Monde (Paris).

The victims of Paris are victims of the same perpetrators who spread terror in Ankara, Beirut, in Syria and Iraq. A terror that we abhor and condemn.

We know it is precisely this terror that thousands are trying to escape from. It is acts of war, like the horrific attacks on Parisians, that Syrians are fleeing.

Today we want to show our most felt compassion and support to those who suffered the IS horror in Paris. Today we also want to offer our solidarity to all victims of IS.

Today it is the day when we stand for our values of peace, democracy and solidarity and want to extend the benefit of these values to those who come to us fleeing the same terror we saw in our own home Friday night.

Our values must be all the more daring when terror strikes us. IS might make Europeans into victims, but never our values. IS might make Syrians into victims, but never our values. Let's stand firm in daring solidarity with Parisians, and let's dare to extend our values and solidarity to all victims of IS.

Also condolences to the victims of Israeli terrorist attacks in illegally occupied Palestine. And the victims of racism, sexism and homophobia everywhere.

Como los europeos, estamos consternados, tristes y de luto después de los ataques terroristas en París. Nos solidarizamos con las familias de las víctimas, amigos y seres queridos. Expresamos la misma solidaridad a todas las víctimas de la IS en todo el mundo, incluyendo los de Ankara, Beirut, Siria e Irak, y para todos los refugiados obligados a huir de sus hogares para escapar el terror que golpeó París. Hoy en día, estamos juntos por la paz. Estamos juntos para liberté, égalité, fraternité. Vamos a publicar este texto en los próximos días como un anuncio en Le Monde (París).

We should all stand together against I. S.

It could have happened to any of us but it shouldn't have happened.

vous avez fait trembler la France de douleur et d'horreur,mais ATTENTION nous avons dans nos gènes la révolution et les droit de l'Homme sabine patrick dimitri vanessa ambre et luna

Ee are all humans and part in this eorld that we borrow from our children. P.s. sorry about the spelling but Seedish is my native language, not English. D.s.

Stand together for our liberty

Peace is the only way!

Très choquée, je m'associe à tous ces messages de solidarité. Naïve, j'espère que lorsque tout le monde pourra bénéficier du minimum (manger à sa faim, boire tout son saoûl, vivre au chaud, être soigné convenablement...) les êtres humains pourront tous vivre côte à côte sans animosité ! Mais pour le moment, ce n'est qu'un rêve. Dommage. A nous tous, de le rendre possible. Delphine

Terror is not confined to attacks iii Western cities. There was also an atrocity in Mali which has had less news coverage and every day Daesh are killing Muslims in Syria. We must support all these victims.

For Peace.

Meme si les attaques ou la guerre semblent actuellement prendre le pas sur la paix,les relations internationales doivent faciliter la paix et la réconciliation. Even war or terrorist attacks seeam to rise aginst peace ,diplomacy ,peace after war are the solution in a second time; Militoj estas pli importaj,paco estis malpli importa ,sed internaciaj ligiloj devus seti pro paco ,post la milito.

Freedom, integrity, peace, liberty

Because all people in the world have the same value as young Parisians.

I was and remain so horribly sad... such good wishes to you all of the city. Go well; please go onwards well and with love.

Pour nos enfants... et pour nous! Refusons la haine.

Nous sommes un seul monde, Paris, Beyrouth, Irak, Syrie, Turquie, Mali, Nigeria, Amérique Latine avec aussi leurs problèmes de violence et de meurtre, et tout le reste de la planète touchée par le terrorisme, la violence et la peur, nous sommes tous ensemble face à la terreur, et c'est ensemble que nous la vaincrons, ensemble dans la solidarité !

we need to stand together against these people who just want to kill and destroy any one who doesn't agree with them

Solidarité avec les réfugiés et les familles, amis des victimes du terrorisme. Finish avec les ventes des armes! Fini avec la hypocrisie des responsables politiques!

It is important that the European politicans together with USA and Russia develop a longlastin strategy how to reduce the possibilities of IS terror. The IS answer of military actions like Bombs will be more terror.

Solidarité.

As European people, we are shocked, saddened and in deep mourning after the terrorist attacks in Paris. We stand in solidarity with the victims’ families, friends and loved ones.

Sending love, light and healing to the whole of humanity.

For the future.

Isis must not win.
