1) I picked this image because the sight of the little girls face and the fact that there is a gunman right beside her. The viewer that looks at the photo might feel like cringing the thought of what might happen to that inccent girl that is covered in blood and is scarred for life.
2) The story explained that during january 2005 the U.S milatery thought that this couple was tranporting insurgents. The results came to after the milatrey shot the husband and wife their kid became a orpan when all this time the family was trying to leave iraq because of the war with the U.S.
3)There were six children in the car, but the explanation under the photo made it sounds like there were just two.

The Burning Monk
1) What caught my attention was the fact that the monk is half burned on his body and also that there is like gasoline sitting right next to the monk . And im surprised no one is doing anything about it they all are just starring at the monk like its no big deal.
2) The story explained that a monk burned himself up in protest of how the Vietnamese regime was treating Buddhists. The photographer even when he took the pictures said, " I just kept shooting and shooting and that protected me from the horror of the thing ".
3) There was an older monk who sat down in the middle of the street. Two younger monks poured gasoline over him. The older monk set himself on fire with a book of matches.

Black Power Salute
