Oh yeah nice clean photos....no blood. We wouldn't want a little blood and guts to upset your day.
Sorry my links didn't satisfy your cravings for blood and gore. (Uh, have you considered therapy?)

The point is that the links I posted show pictures (mourning women, baby injured by insurgent bomb, etc...) that one can actually look at while knowing the context - innocent Iraqi lives destroyed by the insurgents.

The pictures to which you linked, were beneath the a claim ("...victims of Anglo-American agression), but there is no context. With perhaps one exception, we do not know where or when the photos were taken, or how the people in them were injured. We're just supposed to take the website owner's word that blood-thirsty Coalition forces were the cause. Weak. Do you see why this poses a credibility problem?
