What happens if we X Afghanistan

This week’s cover of TIME, showing an Afghan woman whose nose and ears have been cut off by the Taliban, is disturbing, but the reality it shows in Afghanistan is something from which we cannot turn away.

And this story of Aisha (on the picture) is fueling discussions all over the world. So I’ll give it a shot too!

The left image is the original issue’s front page, and the one on the right is my answer to it. Feel free to use this comparison anyway you want!

p.s. André Gunthert analyszes this TIME’s cover thoroughly on his blog. He first compares her (in different ways) to Kim Phuc, Neda and Sharbat Gula. He then fears that in a couple of months, the Americans will help Aisha get plastic surgery and use that new image to “prove” that this war was a good war.

p.p.s. The picture wins the 2010 World Press Photo of the Year.
