Bagdad Snapshot Action - a streetlevel media project in NYC wherein about 70 artists blanket the city with posters featuring snapshots that "show a part of Baghdad we rarely see: the part with people in it."
Apparently, this seemingly innocuous action has come with some police repercussions for some.
These images are freely downloadable for repeating this quite moving public gesture in your own locale.
Plus - 1.) some sharp arguments from Howard Zinn on the illegality of a war on Iraq (but maybe you've seen these before). 2.) An article contrasting the Bush war strategy with Sun Tzu's Art of War. And 3.) Word Art an artist's very morose and subjective meditations on activism and failure during the 1991 Gulf War based on newspaper photos and Middle Eastern art.
