Five immortal pictures that shook the world*)(*
First of all today's post is a little different, and here are some of the most remarkable pictures that have been included in the pages of history to convey the passion, emotion, and love of that time.
At the same time let's say that the pictures here may evoke some idea or emotional feeling in your mind so if you are very sensitive then skip this post.
Every day when we open the newspaper, we see thousands of pictures. What is difficult to express in words, the pictures show in front of our eyes.
Some pictures make us stunned, stir the emotions of the people of the world.
This is an arrangement with five such touching pictures and the story behind them.
5. “Wait for me, daddy!”
The din of World War II rang out everywhere. Countrymen are joining the war in groups to stop Hitler's violent paw. It is not known whether he will be able to return alive from the war.
The call of the country is above all. Warriors are jumping to death by marching with stones on their chests, leaving their families and loved ones behind. But the mind of a small child does not mean so much.
His mind became anxious thinking about why his father was leaving him alone. Five-year-old Warren jumped out of his mother's lap. He hugged his father and said, "Wait for me, father! Take me with you!”
Dad's chest heaved. He hugged Warren with great compassion and said, "Going to answer the call of the country, baby! I will return only after freeing the country from the enemy. Until then, you will be mother's good son, ok?"
Warren chuckles. Father's face is also smiling. With that smile, a drop of water glistened in the corner of his eye.
4. The Tank Man
It was 1989, China's student population has become agitated by the demand for democracy. Thousands of young people have taken to the streets in the liberation march.
The communist government wanted to stop this revolution by using muscle power. The streets of China were filled with the clang of weapons. But the fear of death can keep young people in trouble!
The fire of their revolution in blood, the clamor for the struggle today is still in Tiananmen Square.
Army tanks are coming in droves to drown out the voices of the crowd. But today the youth is not here to stop! Today they are fearless like Lions. The fearless young man strode forward with a heaving chest.
The indomitable spirit of the heart is the asset to face the monster. Let the young man's white shirt be stained with blood today, everyone will see the life of democracy burning there!
3. President Obama sitting on Rosa Park’s seat
The time was 1955. The poisonous shadow of racism surrounds the United States. The oppression of black people for hundreds of years can no longer be accepted. Rosa Parks is a woman who is vocal in her demand for equal rights. How unfair is it to verify people based on skin color?
But that is what has been happening since old days. Black people have segregated schools, segregated dining areas, and even have to sit behind assigned seats on the bus. They are not covered, if touched, the disease will spread! In such a dark age, Rosa Park dreams of a beautiful America, where there will be no differences between people.
After working all day, She boarded the bus on her way home in the evening. Some white people get on the bus in the middle of the road and tell Rosa to go and sit in the back seat reserved for blacks. Several other black people who were with Rosa got up from the seats with their faces covered.
But she is unquestionable. She did not move an inch from the seat. The steel jaw firmly informed the world, “No! I will not leave this seat! Let's end this apartheid!” The white people on the bus were shocked to hear this. What a great challenge! The police came and arrested Rosa.
In a moment, the news of the arrest spread around. People's hearts burned like wildfire. Thousands of years of exploitation and oppression can no longer be ignored.
Now is the time to stand up. Millions of people came down in the movement. The government was forced to repeal these grossly insulting laws against humanity.
Rosa Parks' "No!" The seed of the beginning of liberation was buried, fifty years later that dream has come true! A black man was elected president for the first time in American history!
President Barack Obama went on that bus. The witness of history sat in that seat with deep emotion. Half a century ago, when Rosa Parks was arrested for being a black man, today a black president is sitting there! Victory of humanity today.
2. Rana Plaza Tragedy
A bright morning in April 2013. Like any other day, Rana Plaza is buzzing with activity and noise. Suddenly the building shook. Hell came down there in an instant with the cry of the people. The multi-storied building collapsed in a moment. Thousands of people were buried under the rubble.
The extent of damage is so great that it has been called the world's third-largest industrial disaster. People from all walks of life came down to the rescue work. The atmosphere has become heavy with the smell of corpses and the cries of relatives. Everyone stopped suddenly to move the pile of bricks.
A glass wall that today draws the line between life and death.
What an unprecedented scene! Two people never left each other even at the moment of death. While the sky was collapsing overhead, everyone was running like crazy to save their lives, these two people were holding hands tightly the entire time. I do not know how many dreams they had!
Even in this difficult life of a garment worker, there will be a nest of happiness, there will be a family, how many children will be like God's children, and how many more dreams! Happiness remained forever elusive in this cruel world. The two people lost in the battle of life, but the heavenly example of love that was left will remain in the hearts of people forever.
1. The girl & her dog
March 2011. Peaceful and orderly public life in Japan. Suddenly a strong earthquake shook the surroundings. Coastal towns were swept away by the speed of the tsunami. The electricity system has become inactive.
At that time, the Japanese people did not know what terrible disaster was waiting for them. Fukushima's nuclear plant stopped and radioactive radiation pollution spread around!
All those who were outside at that time were asked to take shelter in a safe place in case of emergency. Did it save? The person who did the market in the morning and sent the child to school and went to the office is not allowed to leave the office.
The wife goes for a walk in the field in the afternoon, is it out today? Is the child in school? By now the holiday is supposed to be over! And the creator! They should not come out! The man is sweating.
This is how many people in Japan were separated from their families that day. And the man may never have met his wife and children. Maybe this girl has never been told how much she hugs her parents and loves them. He is exposed to radiation.
The warm embrace of a loved one that he will never get again! Beloved beyond the glass. A pet dog with a piece of a collar. Never touch again! So close, yet how far! A glass wall that today draws the line between life and death.

I don't understand what about your post stood out to me but during the read I couldn't help but to think of the movie "THE BOY WITH THE STRIPPED PAJAMAS". This is a beautiful movie to watch and show the way the world was and sometimes still is.
