The media does not speak of this statue.

DO YOU  KNOW WHAT THIS IS? OR WHERE THIS IS?
    
   


THE STATUE  
  
  

This statue currently stands outside the Iraqi palace, now home to the 4th Infantry division.  It will eventuallybe shipped home And put in the memorial museum in Fort Hood, Texas   

The statue was created by an Iraqi artist named  Kalat, who for years was forced by  Saddam Hussein to make the many hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam that dotted Baghdad      

Kalat was so grateful for the Americans liberation of his country.  He melted 3 of the heads of the  fallen Saddam and made the statue as a memorial to the American soldiers and their fallen warriors      

Kalat worked on this memorial night and day for several months.       

To the left of the kneeling soldier is a  small Iraqi girl giving the soldier comfort as he mourns the loss of his comrade in arms.      

 Do you know why we don’t hear about this in the news?      

Because it is heartwarming and praise worthy..  
   
The media avoids it because it does not have the shock effect.
  

But we can do something about it. 
    
    
 We can pass this along to as many people as we can in honor of all our brave military who are making a difference.
