War propaganda update

Thanks to reader Jean, I see that I didn't get the article link URL placed in this post. I've corrected that now - my quote was from a PRWatch page. In trying to relocate that page, I came across another page from the PR Watch forum that has another photo which was shot at that same time, with a very poignant quote.

The website where I found the photograph above included the following text below the picture: "Photo by Hayne Palmour/North County Times:

Navy Corpsman Richard Barnett of Camarilo, Calif. checks the heart of a young Iraqi boy as other Navy medics treat the boy's older sister, right, after the two children and their family were caught in a crossfire between US Marines and Iraqi soldiers just outside of a Marine encampment in central Iraq on Saturday, March 29, 2003. The boy was not injured. His sister, who received gunshot wounds, was expected to survive. The father was wounded and the mother was killed in the gun battle. "If anything good comes from this nonsense, I haven't seen it yet," said Barnett after the two children and their father were taken away for a medivac helicopter.

Jean also sends the link to the Mladina article (in the Slovene language).

Many thanks to Jean and to all my readers.
