This Picture Breaks My Heart

Please help pray for those who suffered in the war

EDIT: changed this to a link, it is rather graphic. NikkiD

It's just sick to post that here.

that pic isnt that bad, but it really didnt affect me at all, guess ive seen too much at rotten.com and bangedup.com.

i agree. u should say something in the title. thats gruesome! :P
how do u know thats even from iraq? that could be some suicide bomb or something.
(yes i see the turban).

I changed the pic to a link, although I feel the pain portrayed, it is rather graphic.

sorry if you found this picture gruesome

I found this picture from another forum, the person who posted this picture
claimed that it is done by the Americans.

However i think what he said is not creditble enough, so I didn't mention it's
American but it's due to war and conflict.

with no background info, its just some random tragedy completely out of context. what was the point in posting this?

if you watch the bbc world news.
you will be shown this picture.
unfortunately the picture is cropped such that the injured leg is not shown...


i am pretty pissed with the way cnn is reporting the news.
bbc is a little better.
but i feel that i am not getting the full unbiased picture most times..

too bad i dunno arabic else the al jazeera might be a good alternative.

btw. there's an english version of the website for al jazeera.. unfortunately it is not online now..
probably taken down by the govt.

so much for freedom of speech.

wow. you're pretty anti-establishment.

obviously CNN is reporting only what they are allowed to report, we don't really want the iraqi military to know where are troops are going.

and i don't see why you complain, the fact that you can keep tabs on each battle that occurs, and know the outcome of it in a matter of half hours, is a huge leap in reporting comapared to vietnam or something like that.

al jazeera is the most biased news station ever. i can&#39;t see how it would be better than CNN <_<

and don&#39;t jump to conclusions like "probably taken down by the government" because anybody can translate the al jazeera main page. and if it WAS taken down by the govt., it was probably because they were urging iraqis to fight against the U.S., whereas it would be strategy to take it down.

All news in whatever country is edited to a degree.
I myself try not to watch too much as its very upsetting.
I have never seen such pictures on uk television and I hope it
stays that way.The world is in enough turmoil as it is without innocent
children seeing such graphical images.
