Photo Captures Horror of War and Terrorism

This photo ran in newspapers all around the world today. It's captured international attention and casts the U.S. military in a way that has not yet been seen since the start of the war in Iraq. Photos like this are few and far in between since the international media doesn't want to put the U.S. in a good light in Iraq.

The little girl in the photo was severely wounded in a terrorist bombing in Mosul, Iraq, and this soldier, Major Mark Bieger of the U.S. Army, is rushing her to a nearby U.S. Army hospital. The surgeons couldn't save her.
