    Inflammatory posting. For shame.
    No Source. No context. Phhht.

    I see two soldiers getting their
    picture taken with a poor homeless
    individual they are about to take
    to a shelter where he'll get food,
    shoes and a hot meal for his belly.

    Peace.

    And offcourse that poor homeless person haappend to have a hole in his head and some blood too. And it is a trend to take proud pictures with homeless people in Israeli military correct??? lol goofyfish, I love your reasoning.

    I don't know, actually. Do you?
    I was merely illustrating that, without knowing the context, a picture can tell different stories. Am I defending Israeli actions in Palestine? By no means. Are you condemning ALL Israeli soldiers based on the actions of these three?
    Of course it would not change the fact that a man lies dead. Who is he? Combatant? Civilian? You and I don’t know, do we? And what does your photo really prove these soldiers guilty of besides poor judgment or bad taste?
    Absolutely not. I would just encourage you to think about its impact on others when there is no other information available regarding its origins. I would encourage you to think about its impact on you. As Xev pointed out before me, context and source are important.

    Peace.
