PSG will play their next two games wearing these special shirts with the message ‘Je Suis Paris’ (I am Paris ) as a tribute to victims of the Paris attacks.

SOme other tributes to the Paris victims at sporting events across the world can be seen here
A counterpoint asking the question “Why only Paris” when people die in terrorist strikes in other places too is raised here.

In 1967 Martin Luther King Jr wrote this piece about violence and hate which is perhaps more relevant today than ever before.

The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral,
begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy.
Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it.
Through violence you may murder the liar,
but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth.
Through violence you may murder the hater,
but you do not murder hate.
In fact, violence merely increases hate.
So it goes.
Returning violence for violence multiplies violence,
adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness:
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.
