> “It’s an absolute disgrace,” Mates said. “Whoever did it is going to hell. That’s a mortal sin. God forbid he runs into a Marine that was an Iwo Jima survivor.”Mates also said making the comparison of World War II to global<[/i]While its good to have a view like that I have to say its down right bold to take a historical photo like that and try to use it to compare a modern day problem to the era of World War II, Sorry I'm not happy with the Times over this and I have to say right now that I think there is going to be a huge side taking on this..........Was Time right in using a photo like this? OR should they have done something original......My first concern is copyrights, did they have the original takers consent to modify this picture?Mooch | |

| | Making movies about war during a war | | What do you think about directors like Clint Eastwood and others making movies like Letters from Iwo Jima, Flags of Our Fathers and Jar head when we are at war? Some say it is inappropriate, I on the other hand think these movies make me think and continue to have a conscience and question things. What are your thoughts? | |
