STORM OVER BUSH MOSAIC
Sky News, UK
A mosaic of George Bush using images of servicemen
killed in Iraq has caused a storm in America.
The mosaic, titled War President, was created by an
artist known only as Joe and posted on the website
American Leftist.
It has been seized on by the anti-war lobby as a
graphic portrayal of the heavy cost of invading Iraq.
The US death toll stands at 706 - with 511 killed in
combat.
War President contains 1,410 pictures with some being
used up to three times.
It has angered relatives of the victims because they
were not asked if the photos could be used.
But the artist is unapologetic.
"It's a comment on the war," he said. "I'm not making
a dime off it - and never will."
