The Photo That Won A Pulitzer - Iranian Executions, 1979
Many of you will remember this photograph, it won a Pulitzer and has, since published in '79 been anonymous. Now we know and the story is fascinating. Read the whole thing, then come back and comment. When you go to the article, be sure and see the whole slide show.
Thanks for the link. I really don't have much to add.
However, when Jonathan Demme does his documentary on Jimmy Carter speaking on how to achieve peace in the Middle East and his philosophy of human compassion for all people, these photographs should serve as a prime testimony to Mr. Carter's wisdom regarding the Middle East exhibited during his Presidency.
However, judging from his other statements quoted in the article, I double Mr. Demme plans to include any of these photographs.

Thank you GM. Great fuel for a "fire" I'm building over here. I'll let you know when it's charcoal!
