That lifeless body has been replicated all through the world, there are hundreds of youngsters dying for what many see as a dubious cause at best - Harry was just used because he was well-known and was also meant to serve out in Iraq but for unreported reasons, and for the safety of his men, it was decided he would stay at home. <BR/><BR/>I believe the artist was doing what many artists have tried to do, some successfully and some not, which is to provoke a reaction and get people talking and thinking - it's worked, because we're here discussing it. <BR/><BR/>Though there are people who may not like it, I believe it holds a valid place and whilst it's not by far my favourite piece of art, it shows the sadness and the pain many people feel when they hear that a loved-one, a friend, a husband or son has been killed in action.<BR/><BR/>But that's just my opinion!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30208752.post-89611240595017637732007-10-15T07:07:00.000-04:002007-10-15T07:07:00.000-04:00Check out the video on my blog to see how I feel. ...Check out the video on my blog to see how I feel.
