no words for how this picture impacted me.
An Iraqi man comforts his four yearold son at a holding center for prisoners of war, in the base camp of the US Army 101st irborne Division near An Najaf, southern Iraq, on March 31. The boy had become terrified when, according to orders, his father was hooded nd handcuffed. A US soldier later severed the plastic handcuffs so that the man could comfort his child. Hoods were placed over detainees' heads because they were quicker to apply than blindfolds. The military said the bags were used to disorientate prisoners and to protect their identities. It is not known what happened to the man or his son. thanks to jonny baker for putting this on his site.
