With regard to the images you posted as "Dead
Children from the Iraq War", the following
pertains:
One of the images has no dead children. It is an
obviously doctored image of a young boy appearing
to piss on a soldiers head.
One of the images would appear to be from the
wars in the former Yugoslavia as the people are
clearly slavic and not Iraqi. Also, this image
contains no dead children, but rather a picture
of a boy crying.
One of the images is a drawing of a boy.
The other pictures would appear to be pictures of
victims of Sadam's gas attack on the Kurdish city
of Halabja in 1988. I have seen most of them in
the news media before. I suppose they could be
considered as having been killed in an war in
Iraq, but it was not this one.
I chose not to view the avi file.
I am not taking a position one way or the other
on the war. The death of children in war, no
matter when or how is awful. However, I am
urging you to be careful how you label and
present such inflammatory images. Also, I would
suggest to you that strong political content
might work against some of your other objectives
with the group many of which I support.
Take care,
Duey
