Re.: Peter Arnett speaks out

The Mirror has some interesting ways of presenting familiar fotos.
When I first went to the Mirror site, right after reading the lead-in
posted by Lou,
there was a picture of a smiling Saddam at the top.  My coal-powered,
steam driven computer was slow loading the rest of the page so I
reloaded.  The same page appeared but with a different foto of the Iraqi
leader.
He was no longer smiling, but looking grim and dark.

Then I went to the Pater Arnett article.  In it was a picture, perhaps
familiar
to some of us, of a young, unconscious girl carried by an elderly man
with
a grizzled beard and kaffiya.  The Mirror cropped the right edge of the
foto.
Viewers were spared the sight of her mangled, bloody leg that ended just

above her ankle where the girl's foot should have been.
The viewers were spared an image that might drive more to regard this
war
as cruel and insane.
