Ugly


Photos of War are ugly. It is not a video game or a Hollywood re-make of THE A-TEAM. The US Military shoots over a billion bullets a year in Iraq and Afghanistan. Many of them hit their targets. Many more hit anyone in their path. And the smart bombs aren’t much better. After two soldiers drowned in a Hindu Kush River, a coalition fighter bombed friendly forces searching for the missing men. It’s all ugly and it won’t get pretty, until someone has the courage to call for a cease-fire.

It’s not a question of ‘yes, we can’ anymore. It’s ‘yes, we will’.

End the war.
