Gaza, Mumbai, even Bagdhad all ravaged by violence but managing to retain their dignity and beauty to some degree. These photos are a perfect example. Perhaps there will come a day when we'll stop and see, and perhaps then we'll be too struck by the sight to want to kill each other. <i>Dona Nobis Pacem</i> It never ceases to amaze me how beauty finds a way to push through even in the ugliest of situations.

The entire situation is tragic and devastating, in more ways than one. I have two friends (unrelated to each other). One is far from the situation, and one is about fifty miles from Gaza.
