The World Surely is flat

When Thomas Friedmans wrotes in his book the World is Flat about how the world is connecting, he did not imagine that the world will join so profoundly in mourning with the American people over the deaths of 20 children and six teachers in a US school massacre as well as for the mother of the culprit and for the culprit.  Condolences have flowed from all over the world signifying that what happens in America is not just and incident in a far away land. As Obama shed tears and committed to see an end to such incidents, many Kenyans shed a tear or two for those families.
