I'm trying out a new icon; the relevant background story is here.

I can actually understand why the local officials in Tikrit should deem the sculpture inappropriate for display in the grounds of an orphanage that is government property. I've no quibbles with that.

Where my hackles rise, however, is on discovering that Laith al-Amari's sculpture wasn't just removed but destroyed. Book burning, anyone?

So, in order it not be entirely destroyed, I'm adopting it as one of my icons.
