those who fought against the strongest army of the world safeguarded
mankind from a new mutual extermination.â~@~]

terrorism still dominates many minds. We must think about how to
counter terrorism, how to preserve the greatest achievement of the
victory â~@~S lasting peace between nations, how to revive the ideal
of unity and spiritual strength that were shown in those years so
that the lessons of the great victory were not forgotten but would
serve for the future of mankind.â~@~]
