Das letzte Jahrzehnt in Bildern

In "The decade in news photographs" bietet "Boston.com" eine Online-Galerie mit 50 Bildern aus dem letzten Jahrzehnt, einige davon sind bereits jetzt Ikonen. Beeindruckend, auch wenn die Kriege, Terror-Attacken und Naturkatastrophen in der Mehrzahl zu sein scheinen.

Der Abstract: "Call it what you will, "the noughties", "the two-thousands" or something else, the first decade of the 21st century (2000-2009) is now over. Looking back on the past ten years through news photographs, it becomes clear that it was a dramatic, often brutal decade. Natural disasters, terrorist attacks and wars were by far the most dominant theme. Ten years ago, Bill Clinton was ending his final term in office, very few had ever heard of Osama bin Laden, the Taliban ruled Afghanistan and Saddam Hussein still ruled Iraq - all that and much more has changed in the intervening time. It's really an impossible task to sum up ten years in a handful of photographs, but below is my best attempt at a look back at the last decade - feel free to let me know what I missed in the comments below. (50 photos total)"
