Nicht die-iese tone ! Sondern lass uns andere anstimmen...
Und freudevollere !!!
Let is remember what unites us down here in good old Europe, from the highest North to the South, from the far East including Russia, to the West including Great Britain and Ireland:
Our Greek cultural heritage, our Roman cultural heritage, our Renaissance heritage...
The Edda and the Runes, the ideal of the Huomo Universale, the great lessons and living examples of the Medicis, Sheakespeare, our great compositors, artists, architects, scientists and lawmen.
So much we have to offer the world. So much richness and power to radiate into positive constructive laser beams.
Let us be united Europe more than ever. Let us not think we have to be thorn down to the level of ordinary streat fighting and robbery. Let us on the contrary uphold the oldest and highest human standard, and strengthen it more and more, day by day.
And above all, let us not forget the other cultures, that inspired and fortified ours: the Arab culture, the Babylonian culture, the Indian culture, the Chinese culture and many others. Let us pay them tribute and give them the respect and gratitude they deserve for their own values and riches.
And let us be polite when we visit them in their own countries and homes: show them our smile and if requested our pasport or visa, but not a gun. Let them know we respect them in their own nature and we are no threat to them.
Let them know, we consider them like human beings like we consider ourself and each other here in our great age old culture.
