Making the rounds on the Internet, the photo mosaic above is composed of the photos of the American service men and women who have died in Iraq. If you click on the photo, you can see every face.
Created by Joe Broadhurst at the American Leftist weblog, as the original creator had maxed out of bandwidth, the photo is mirrored at several other sites, including that of Dan Shannon at !blog, who writes,
My eyes burn a little as I think about this. Some of these men stare into the camera with a smile, some with determination, some with fear or sadness at being taken from their families to fight a barely-justified war halfway across the world. They all have one thing in common: they’re not coming back.
There are 610 of them now. 610 brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers, sons and daughters. They died in a war for oil and empire. I hope that President Bush sees this picture sometime.
Mr. Broadhurst has titled the image above, “The War President”.
