As I mentioned before, I really like this story, and not just because I know so many of the people involved. I've long believed that military prowess will only take you so far, and that a nation truly conquers adversity when it bends down to lift its enemies up and help them. This notion is summed up at the end of the movie "Charlie Wilson's War" and should be a lesson to everyone pushing for military intervention as an end solution to global US policy in and of itself.
To my friends at TBT, my apologies for not doing your portraits justice - I hope that I did a better job of capturing your spirit.
