No more turning away.
Yeah, I can hear the voice of Mr Blair now, "look, y'know, I think you have to put these things into proper perspective". Yet I cannot watch such a film, and see our own family photos of loved ones around the room and NOT feel the reality of it. Its not television.
We think that these acts are planned and implemented by human minds but who knows for sure. With all our faults, I don't think the shame is in being human. The shame is allowing those with inhuman minds to dictate the course of human civilization. The shame is that our ignorance and wishful thinking allow psychopaths to remain in power. Psychopaths hurt others and claim they are the ones being hurt. Only psychopaths and those in their thrall would describe what these images depict as defense.
Excellent choice of images that are both significant as well as moving. I think the band must have had something like this in mind when they wrote the song.

Wow! That just says it all. If it didn't hurt so bad, I'd watch it again.
