Guest guest Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 That’s beautiful. I know exactly why we don’t see or read of these things in a normal way!!!! I know we are not to talk politics so that is all I will say about that. Than From: Carey Sent: Friday, July 09, 2004 12:32 PM To: LUPIES Subject: LOST' / A FRIEND SENT THIS TO ME AND I THOUGHT IT WORTH SHARING The statue was created by an Iraqi artist named Kalat, who for years was forced by Saddam Hussein to make the many hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam that dotted Baghdad. Kalat was so grateful for the Americans liberation of his country; he melted 3 of the heads of the fallen Saddam and made the statue as a memorial to the American soldiers and their fallen warriors. Kalat worked on this memorial night and day for several months. To the left of the kneeling soldier is a small Iraqi girl giving the soldier comfort as he mourns the loss of his comrade in arms. Do you know why we don't hear about this in the news? Because it is heart warming and praise worthy. The media avoids it because it does not have the shock effect that a flashed breast or controversy of politics does.
