A Tale of Two Cultures - Newsweek: "Rudyard Kipling famously said, “East is East, West is West, and never the twain shall meet.”
Yet since Japan’s devastating earthquake, the entire world has been riveted by heart-breaking images in the East revealing the horror of a nation whose northern coastline was reduced to rubble. Several nations have rallied behind Japan, sending in badly needed aid and other offers of help. The resounding support and generosity offered by the world community reveals the common bond, the humanity, that East and West share, contradicting Kipling."
