Saw this today and I cried

42. Thank you, good question. There are ways to provide someone with information they obviously didn't

have. A little kindness goes a long.

I remember that photo and cried too when I first saw it. This is what Bush/Cheney et al did to countless beautiful children, those who didn't themselves die.

Until this country acknowledges its guilt and begins the prosecutions that are so long overdue, we will continue to be viewed as the biggest threat to world peace.

Beautiful, poignant photo.

Editing to say I have read further down in the thread that this particular photo is not one of those taken of Iraqi children, but the artist's relative.

However there are many photos of the children of Iraq, quite a few taken by Dahr Jamail during the occupation. Sadly many of them were dead, others badly wounded. He was one of the bravest photo journalists during the Bush invasion of that country. He was a witness to the horrible crimes committed there.

I'm happy to learn that this child was not one of them.
