Vilagszam!

Egy cikk a napokbol: Hungary marks 50th anniversary — Police clash with protestors, illetve egy mutatos foto az elkotott tankrol valahol a Deak ternel. Ezek nem valamelyik Kelet-Europaval hivatasszeruen foglalkozo ujsagbol vannak, hanem ket angol nyelvu, Pakisztanban(!) megjeleno napilapbol.

Meglehetosen ambivalens erzesekkel vettem tudomasul, hogy a forradalom evfordulojan megint vilaghirre jutottunk…

Mult kedd ota csak hezagosan tudok tajekozodni az otthoni fejlemenyekrol, mert Pakisztanban az internethez nem mindenhol lehet hozzaferni. Hetfon este azonban biztos, hogy mind a negy nagy hirtelevizioban — a CNN-en, a BBC-n, a SKY-on es a Fox-on — is vezeto hirkent szerepeltek a budapesti demonstraciok.

Nehany nappal korabban egyebkent Pakisztan es India hataran jartam, ahol nap mint nap egy meglehetosen kulonos ceremonia kereteben vonjak le este a ket allam lobogojat. Valoszinuleg a vilagon nincs meg egy hasonlo, itt viszont mindket oldalon komoly idegenforgalmat vonz az esemeny. Az egesz egyebkent olyan, mint egy humanetologia tanulmany: a feszes, katonas mozdulatok, az uvolto parancsszavak, a foldhoz csapott bakancsok duborgese azt a celt szolgaljak, hogy felemet ebresszen a masik felben. Olyan ez, mintha kakasviadalt latna az ember. Tortenelmileg persze megvan a maga oka ennek az elrettentesi vagynak, hiszen Pakisztan es India ket haborut is vivott egymassal, Kashmir tartomany hovatartozasa pedig meg ma is vitatott.

Mindennek ellenere van egy erdekes pillanata a ceremonianak: a ket szemben allo fel kepviseleteben ugyanis az orsegparancsnokok kezet fognak egymassal a hatarvonalon. Nem tobb, csak egy kezrazas, de szimbolikus jelentosege van.

Hajlamosak vagyunk azt hinni, Kozep-Azsianak ezek a szegeny orszagai a barbarizmus foldjet jelentik. A haboruskodasnak persze tenyleg nagy hagyomanya van errefele, de ugy latszik az ellenfel tisztelete naluk jobban hozzatartozik a normalis viselkedeshez, mint nalunk. Mert milyen jo lenne, ha a ket nagy magyarorszagi politikai tabor is kepes volna erre a jelkepes kezfogasra…

    Ez a kézfogás csak “vágyálom” maradhat, hiszen ilyen gesztushoz az adott feleknek valamilyenfajta “úriemberséggel” kellene rendelkezniük. Ennek a tulajdonságnak viszont igencsak híján vannak a mi kedves honatyáink. (Ennek is. Sajnos.)

Even so, they do not generally realize that there are other benefits so that you can losing weight additionally.

    I’m planning on doing an English Literature with Creative Writing undergraduate degree course, beginning in 2010. Initially, I just wanted to study English, but recently I’ve decided I would be better suited to English Literature with Creative Writing. Are there any universities that are especially good for English and creative writing? A lot of the universities I had previously been looking at don’t offer the course, and The Times University Guide only offers an English league table. All answers appreciated! (-:.

    Things you mentioned seems sensible. However, consider this, what if you included a little more? I am talking about, I dont want to tell you the way to run your website, but if you added more stuff which can certainly grab people’s attention? Just as a video or possibly a snapshot or two to get your readers psyched concerning what you mentioned.
