5. (more info inside) Iraqi man comforts his son at holding center in Najaf

Jean-Marc Bouju, France, The Associated Press.
An Najaf, Iraq, 31 March 2003. Iraqi man comforts his son at a holding center for prisoners of war.

"Working quickly and discreetly, Bouju couldn't help thinking about his own child, and how it would be if the roles were reversed."

This link should work, sorry.

In Brazil, not only was the government evil, it was incompetent.

Now does that sound familiar or what?

Khash.
