The real costs of war

Our corporate owned media does little to show us the real costs of American military folly in Iraq. This extends to a near black-out of any images of those devastated by war, including American servicemen (and women). In a new book, "Never Coming Home," Andrew Lichtenstein has compiled images which convey the true costs of war. They do not show the physical damage inflicted, but the longer term, devastating emotional consequences to family and loved ones. You can view the short photo essay here.
