Hehe. I post once on the Downs in about two years and I am disagreed with. Plus ça change.
I am not sure that I was saying much more than that I was moved by the piece linked to and that it reminded me of the Downs.
That said, while it is not on the face of it surprising that people suffering oppression should find inspiration in Tolkein's message, it is interesting to find an example of it doing so in a Middle Eastern culture, given that it is generally considered to have a grounding in Western culture.
