We all sound the images, we have seen every minute during the last week and will continue to see, for quite some time. All we have seen the great black wave that swept the coastal towns of Japan, we've all seen the great movement of the earth, or falling plaster boards of some buildings, and many have seen, with considerable concern, and we are seeing and - Images of the Fukushima nuclear plant. Even contemplate daily almost hourly evolution of the plant, and startle us, every time that workers there are, you have to take to their heels because one of the reactors has been given to let smoke escape, or other types of touch radioactive.
But what we have been less, at least initially, were the images of the Nipponese. When the sea of \u200b\u200bimages, razing towns water, the fire consumed the possessions of the miscreants, who were involved and buffeted by nature, and the continuing explosion of the nuclear plant. The cameras, of all the world media have landed on them, they are the sad part of the story. The Japanese, who survived the earthquake and tsunami, those who endure long queues, without moving an eyebrow, quietly and without panic.
We have seen long queues waiting to get some food, to get a few liters of gasoline to fill the tanks of their cars, and leave the area, "or small bottles orange-red, with which to light their heaters-those who have managed to keep his house, and not die of cold, for Mother Nature, after the disasters of earthquake and nuclear alarm, has awarded a heavy, icy snow. Even we have been enduring stoically, LF queues to use a public phone booth. Without changing face, I can count on the fingers, the Japanese who have appeared on screen shed tears, even though many of them have lost everything.
Now, I propose a game, or rather an exercise of imagination and fancy. Imagine the same thing that has happened in the lands of the Empire of the Rising Sun, have happened in any country in Europe. And do not say here, but in German lands squared, or in the territory of the educated and English drawn. At the slightest natural disaster, we fall into a circle of fear and panic, accompanied by the need to go out and loot what is closest to us, certainly in question hours, all malls which sell appliances and elements of second and third need, would be swept away. Which shows how stupid society, as is well you've taken a plasma TV, with HD and not many more Mandango three next-generation computers and two futuristic coffee, announcing a U.S. actor, but tell me thing, where you think plugging. Genius. I guess
later, after supplying our consumerist ego-neck that otherwise could have achieved, "we would by thinking that something must fill the stomach if the matter goes for long, and we would launch to end all which would in restaurants and supermarkets. Later, when water and food shortages and famine are widespread, appear the soldiers sent by the NATO, and after hearing their recommendations to wait in line well-formed, we would launch an avalanche against the soldiers and not only they would remove the food and water, but will tear an arm in a blue helmet if necessary. Hoarding all the food and drink as possible to enable, if need be, sell to the highest bidder. Thus, not otherwise react to a catastrophe like the one suffered in Japanese land.
Honestly, I thought, or think so. I think the man is evil by nature, as I said here some time-and the disappearance of the law that controls us and keeps us within a social reserve, where we are taught to behave and that we punish the criminal code, if we take the foot of the pot, and would act, not otherwise. We would become wolves, capable of anything to get ahead, coming to kill, as we have seen in other natural disasters.
But the Japanese people made me have or see a light at the end of the tunnel, simply because the Japanese people, has shown how to behave to a disaster of this size, and in a country of the characteristics of Japan. There, all members of society think as a whole and in the set. The individual particular is secondary, and so will survive and will do well, because instead of launching a devastating and hoarding, are put to work shoulder to shoulder, and are able to wait for hours for their turn, just to get a bowl of rice. Because they are clear that in a world like ours, an individual can not survive adversity in the singular.
