The Iraq War as a Trophy Photo
"A peace activist should keep a photo in his or her wallet of a small Iraqi child torn to pieces - a constant reminder to live like others are dying," writes David Swanson. "The trouble is that we find it almost unbearable to look at such images. We believe the war would end if the corporate media showed such images, yet we turn our faces away if they're placed in front of us; even more so, if they happen to be images of torture or of soldiers enjoying humiliating Iraqis."
