    Did anyone notice the street/buildings picture in the second batch , there was a nice curvature feature , just like he uses in his NY street scenes .

    Not a very usual feature amongst regular war photographers submitting pictures to a NY based company .

    The photograph in Newsweek was taken by Nasser Nasser of the AP. That means he is the originator and he took it as a part of the AP. In other words, contract photography.

    It is on pg 25 of the July 24th edition.

    In this thread where Soly said he was going to Iraq Soly said his name was Jason https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=64086 Now Nasser could be a pusedyomnm or Soly could be lying or he dosnet want to give out his real name or and this is probably most likely Soly was somewhere he wasnt supposed to be and sold or gave the photographs or dropped them anonmysly (sic) Let the man speak

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
