In recent years, societies worldwide have observed an unsettling uptick in acts of violence and terrorism. These aren't isolated to one geographical location or culture but transcend boundaries and ideologies, sowing fear and confusion. Several incidents have not only made headlines but have also imprinted themselves in the collective consciousness of the global community.
As we grapple with these dual pandemics, an old adage reverberates with renewed relevance - "United we stand, divided we fall". The phrase, a rallying cry in the face of adversity, has never held more significance. Today, it stands not just as a statement of resilience but as a stark warning. For it is not only the virus we fight but also the societal and political schisms that have been laid bare and further fueled by the pandemic and the disinformation accompanying it.
