The Usurper: this is the image that has always stuck in my mind happened during the Vietnam conflict but it had a powerful meaning to me has a teenager and still does http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/spl/hi/picture_gallery/05/in_pictures_the_vietnam_war_/img/5.jpg 17.

Snoopy: Yes, that is a very powerful, and now famous, image. what you can't see from the picture is how the little girl's skin has been burned off her back. The picture is actually a snapshot of film footage. I wish that each night, on the nightly news, the American people would sit down to such images and film. There is no shortage of them. New ones are created every day. It would move a lot of people to action against the atrocities of war. Unfortunately, our national media is not even allowed to photograph the closed coffins of our dead soldiers. 17.
