If you have not heard of the Ariana Grande concert bombing in Manchester Germany chances are you are living under a rock. On May 22nd at 10:35 pm (local time) a suicide bomber detonated a bomb outside of the Manchester Arena that was hosting an Ariana Grande concert. The terrorist group, Isis, has taken responsibility for the bombing, and the suicide bomber has been identified as 22-year-old Salman Abedi. Due to the attack 22 loved ones are now dead and at least 59 others were injured. (Source) Sadly, everyone in the world has been affected in some way by terrorists, whether it be groups similar to Isis or a person from their own country the facts are that terrorist attacks are more common than ever. Many would claim that humanity is lost and if one were to look at the news and see all of the evil things going on the world today he or she would probably agree that is humanity is lost, but here is why it is not. Terrorists main goal is to break apart nations, countries, communities, and even families but what they do not realize is these attacks are bringing all of those different kinds of people together more than ever.
On November 13, 2015, Paris was home to as many as five terrorist attacks in one night happening almost simultaneously. Outside of a football game, cafes, bars, and restaurants. Between shootings and bombings, 130 people died that night and hundreds were injured or in critical condition. Once the attacks hit the news counties all over the world showed their support by lighting monuments with the colors of Paris. Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, the World Trade Center in New York, Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, Wembley Stadium in London, and Kuala Lumpur Tower in Malaysia are just a few countries that were lit up by colors of red, white, and blue to show that they stood united with Paris in a time of devastation.
