Collages of War: Exploring the power of images in the anti war movement.
Powerful photos of the human suffering of war can have a great impact on those that view them.
Often this impact is greater than the impact of words when it comes to getting across the gross injustices done to civilians in times of war. It is with this in mind that I have begun creating a series of collages using images of war. This is the Volume 3 of this series for DailyKos.
Volume 1 is found here
Volume 2 is found here
Each image will be matched with a quote. It is my attention to use these images and words as a way communicate as best I can the way I feel about the current war in Iraq.

"The enemies of liberty and our country should make no mistake, America remains engaged in the world, by history and by choice, shaping a balance of power that favors freedom. We will defend our allies and our interests. We will show purpose without arrogance. We will meet aggression and bad faith with resolve and strength. And to all nations, we will speak for the values that gave our nation birth."
