Maybe you’re against the war, maybe you support it. No matter where you fall on that
issue, scenes like this have to make you feel good and think that maybe, just maybe things aren’t all bad there. Once you admit that to yourself you might, just might, start to find other positive stories out of there about the happening in Iraq.
This picture was taken by Michael Yon in Baghdad, it’s the cross being replaced by Christians and Muslims atop St. John’s Church. Yon is even making the picture available for free to media outlets. Will they use it? Do you really think…never mind.
Unfortunately, though not surprisingly, you won’t find this picture or similar stories in the major newspapers and on news outlets. Though we’ll bet you dollars to donuts that if this church gets destroyed you will see this picture everywhere at THE before picture and as an example how things are falling apart. It will be rebuilt by both Christians and Muslims, but that won’t get mention either.
Peaceful, good time stories don’t fit the paradigm.
