We woke up this

/>We woke up this morning to find hundreds of posters on lamposts, walls, and
mailboxes. Wedding photos, birthday parties, dinner parties—all with smiling
faces. The photos include a small line on the bottom of the snapshot -“Baghdad”
and then the date the photo was taken (most all of them in the last four weeks).
They are very, very reminiscent of all the family photos placed in Manhattan in
the days following September 11th.

Walking around lower Manhattan
this morning, very close to Ground Zero, and seeing all of these posters, was a
surreal experience. You can`t help but feel the impact of this campaign.
