Of men and hands

When the same gesture, for completely different men, means the same thing. "Lets go!". Humans always used the same body language, either the humble Greek sailor or the ruthless Korean dictator.

Yep, you're right the body language of the world leaders gives us the same message. Even the founder of Turkish Republic -Ataturk- has got the same salute to the people with his statues:)
