Some Pictures That Told the Bitter Truth of Wars

 Some of the most shocking pictures are presented here that told the story of bitter truth about the wars.

Innocent mistake.

Remarkable picture illustrate the predictable consequences of any military act, proving that even accidents can leave innocent blood on your hands; you will never be able to wash off. Chris joined the soldiers during a routine foot patrol downtown Tal Afar, a city in northern Iraq that he hoped to make a few photos of patriotic helicopter Apache. At 18:00 and dusk came curfew patrol moved down the street and suddenly saw a car moving in their direction. Considering it an ambush, the soldiers made a few warning shots with no visible reaction from the driver and passengers of the car. Fear caused them to open fire. The car stalled, but the inertia rolled closer, they heard something more terrible than the cries of the rebels. It was the children crying. Inside the car was an ordinary family a mother, father and four children who were in a hurry to get home before curfew. The driver did not see the masked soldiers, and when he heard the shots, and then instinctively stepped on the gas, it is a natural reaction to the shots in the area where clashes can occur at any time. Children are alive, but their parents received multiple fatal injuries to the head and body. These kids will always remember this night that changed their lives once and for all, while American soldiers returned to base to play Nintendo and drink beer.

Rhodesian questioning.

Rhodesian forest wars are little known to most readers, the military conflict. The conflict, which lasted as long as 13 years, between 1964 and 1979, which was the culmination of social tension that has been brewing for nearly two centuries. African nationalists did not want to live under the yoke of the Europeans and rouse the masses to revolution, but actually a bloody guerrilla war, which eventually evolved into the present. The guerrillas were fighting for a just cause, or rather for freedom from foreign invaders, while the predominantly white, the government was considering the increasing attacks as terrorist insurgency. White now can not feel safe and settled in their heads for fear of life and own property. The government of Rhodesia responded ruthlessly. In most cases, they killed ordinary civilians to hunt down and destroy the guerrillas who came to take revenge. When the partisans caught them staged interrogation, but in fact it was more like torture. Journalist J. Ross Baughman made this photograph in a government military unit, where the white man makes prisoners do push-ups at gunpoint for 45 minutes under the scorching midday sun. Each time a man fell to the ground, the soldiers dragged him around the corner, beaten unconscious and fired into the air. By the end of the interrogation, all the remaining prisoners were psychologically broken.

Stripping Cold Harbor.

Described in the Photo Library of Congress as "African-Americans are going ostnki soldiers killed in the battle, photography, in fact offers a sight into war deeper than it may be seem. Two weeks of terror, which essentially was a battle of Cold Harbor, began May 31, 1864. A horror here is that in two weeks killed 18,000 people. And later, General Grant said: "We did not get the desired benefits from the victory, because the losses that we have suffered.  Next  four days after the end of battle, the bodies of the wounded and dying people to remain in the open air while the officers were in their tents did not allow doctors to risk their lives for the salvation of their own soldiers. By the time they arrived, it was already too late, most of the soldiers died. Almost immediately, the officers withdrew and sent medical teams to sweep the area. The soldiers were not need anyone, they were a real cannon fodder, but as in any

War.Leonard Siffleet.

When this photo first appeared in the magazine LIFE, the cry of indignation swept over the world. The man in the photo is believed to be an Australian Sergeant Leonard Siffleet (Siffleet). The photo was taken about a year after he was captured during a reconnaissance mission in Papua New Guinea. He was found dead in the form of a Japanese soldier. Leonard and his companions were beheaded. Beheading was fairly common form of punishment of prisoners of the Japanese during World War II, and it seemed that for the Japanese it was a kind of sport. They practiced a single penalty, and massive bloody harvest, such as during the three-day massacre in Changdzhao (Changjiao), where more than 30,000 Chinese were brutally executed by the Japanese military.
