I ~think~ what he's trying to do is: First of all, let the US know he's pissed that they recognized Kosovo as an independant state over the protests of Serbia, and, Second, I ~think~ he's trying to draw an analogy between the present situation in Kosovo/Serbia and that of appeasement in just before WWII. You know, Neville Chamberlain, "Peace in our time," that sort of thing. Of course, I could be wrong, but that's what I took from that particular placard. It does take some imaginative interpretation, I'll admit... ;-) Finally, I'm with you, Bruce and others who like the first image best. I find it the most powerful and the most representative of the mood of the crowd ("surly"). That's why I put if first! cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
