மனதை உருக்கும் புகைப்படங்கள்

எனக்கு மெயிலில் வந்த சில மனதை உருக்கும் புகைப்படங்கள் உங்கள் பார்வைக்கு...


1962. A soldier shot by a sniper hangs onto a priest in his last moments.

1975. A woman and a girl falling down after the fire escape collapses.

Young rebel fighters from the Liberians United for Reconciliation and Democracy (LURD) patrol in Voinjama.


Phan Thị Kim Phúc known as Kim Phuc (born 1963) was the subject of a famous photo from the Vietnam war. The picture shows her at about age nine running naked after being severely burned on her back by a napalm attack.



1994. A man who was tortured by the soldiers since he was suspected to have spoken with the Tutsi rebels.



1987. A mother in South Korea apologizes and asks for forgiveness for his son who was arrested after attending a protest. He was protesting the alleged manipulations in the general elections.

1992. A mother in Somalia holds the body of her child who died of hunger.



2003. An Iraqi prisoner of war tries to calm down his child


2002. Soldiers and villagers in IRan are digging graves for the victims of the earthquake. A kid holds his father's pants before he is buried.

This is a famous picture, taken in 1930, showing the young black men accused of raping a Caucasian woman and killing her boyfriend, hanged by a mob of 10,000 white men। The mob took them by force from the county jail house. Another black man was left behind and ended up being saved from lynching. Even if lynching photos were designed to boost white supremacy, the tortured bodies and grotesquely happy crowds ended up revolting many.



This is the picture of a student/man going to work who has just had enough. The days leading up to this event thousands of protesters and innocent by standers were killed by their own government because the Chinese people wanted more rights. He tries to stop the tanks in Tiananmen Square by standing in front of them and climbed on the tank and hitting the hatch and yelling, the tank driver didn't crush the man with the bags as a group of unknown people came and dragged him away, we still don't know if the man is alive or dead as the Chinese government executed many of the protesters involved. China is still controlled by a communist regime, but while there are strong willed men like this the country still has hope.


Bosnian woman weeps next to the coffins of Muslim men and boys before their burial in Potocari, near Srebrenica, some 75 kilometers north of Sarajevo, on Saturday, July 10, 2004 as the city prepares for Sunday's funeral of 335 newly identified bodies of Muslims killed in the worst massacre of civilians since World War II।The slayings of up to 8,000 Muslim men and boys in July 1995 in Srebrenica at the hands of the Bosnian Serbs have come to symbolize Bosnia's devastating 3 1/2-year war.



1980. A kid in Uganda about to die of hunger, and a missionaire.

1982. Palestinian refugees murdered in Beirut , Lebanon






1957. The first day of Dorothy Counts at the Harry Harding High School in the United States . Counts was one of the first black students admitted in the school, and she was no longer able to stand the harassments after 4 days.



February 1, 1968. South Vietnam police chief Nguyen Ngoc Loan shots a young man, whom he suspects to be a Viet Kong soldier.


1963. Thich Quang Duc, the Buddhist priest in Southern Vietnam , burns himself to death protesting the government's torture policy against priests. Thich Quang Dug never made a sound or moved while he was burning.


1973. A few seconds before Chile 's elected president Salvador Allende is dead during the coup.



January 12, 1960. A second before the Japanese Socialist Party leader Asanuma was murdered by an opponent student.




1966। U.S. troops in South Vietnam are dragging a dead Vietkong soldier.

கடைசிப் படம் பார்க்க சிரிப்பு வந்தது. ஏனெனில் இராக்கிலோ,ஆப்கானிஸ்தானிலோ அமெரிக்க இராணுவத்தை கொன்று இப்படி இழுத்த போது, ஐரோப்பிய அமெரிக்க உலகம் 'காட்டுமிராண்டித் தனம்'' என உச்சுக் கொட்டியது.
அட இது கூட நீங்கள் காட்டிக் கொடுத்ததென்பதை இலகுவாக மறக்கிறீர்களே!!

அமெரிக்கா என்றில்லை யோகன்.. கிட்டத்தட்ட உலகில் உள்ள அனைத்து நாடுகளிலுமே இத்தகைய கொடூரம் நடந்துள்ளது. போர் என்று வந்துவிட்டால் எல்லா ராணுவங்களும் ஒரே கொள்கை, ஒரே சிந்தாந்தத்தைத்தான் கைக்கொண்டுள்ளார்கள்.
