Hey thanks for that picture, it was very touching.

And now for once I believe a picture can say 1,000 words

I think the only thing the artist missed was putting hte girl in a hajib...right now she look slike any girl, instead of an Iraqi sympathizing with an American, which was the intent of the work.

STILL, the fact that the artist took it upon himself to make this speaks a lot!

So true, Chris.

Shortly after the attack and destruction of the World Trade Center towers in NYC, Steve Dunleavy posted a photo in the New York Post of a fireman who was asleep on a cot after working many hours on the clean-up.
The caption was something like, "Good night, sweet prince."
I remember thinking then, also, "One picture worth a thousand words." Dunleavy managed it in one photo and four or five words.

Thanks, Stars, for the lovely but poignant and haunting photo.

Pray for our troops.
