Day 1231 of Bassel not being free-100 years after WW1 began icon png download

Day 1231 of Bassel's imprisonment marks 100 years since the outbreak of World War I. In commemoration of the fact that Bassel is a peacemaker, and the sort of individual who believes in the power of technology to enrich life rather than destroy (or pacify/sedate) it (which is as radical of an idea today as it was 100 years ago), this image contains, in the background, excerpts from the document/correspondence that triggered the Austro-Hungarian Empire's declaration of war against the Kingdom of Serbia in July of 1914. Were there someone like Bassel around in those days - WWI may have been avoidable. --------------------- Works cited: The Austro-Hungarian Empire's Ultimatum to the Kingdom of Serbia [English Translation: wwi.lib.byu.edu/index.php/The_Austro-Hungarian_Ultimatum_to_Serbia_(English_translation) ] The Serbian Response to the Austro-Hungarian Ultimatum [English Translation: wwi.lib.byu.edu/index.php/The_Serbian_Response_to_the_Austro-Hungarian_Ultimatum_(English_translation) ]
