That's always an alternative. I guess it all depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

Remember that the insurgents use ambulances to transport arms and troops, purposely use women and children as human shields. People all over have to pass through metal detectors to fly on planes. So what is the point of the picture?
It is called security, the little girl is not being harmed.

So what is the point of the picture?
One, that a little girl is scared. Two, that things you think are reasonable security measures may turn the population against us, and that would be worse for US troops' security.

the person who posted this picture is a supporter of Hamas and Islamic Jihad, and he regularly posts comments condemning the US, Israel, and any western nation that puts a resistance to terrorism..
