I don't want to bring politics into the ricoblog arena, but every now and then something just hits me. This is one of those times.

Despite your politics, despite whatever your stance on the situation in Iraq is, you need to go see a photo taken by Michael Yon in Mosul, and you need to read his description of the circumstances of the photo.

It made me cry, and I don't know that I'll get over it any time soon.
