From a political perspective, it was a good decision for the president not to show pictures. Such action would set off a chain reaction of negative events. We must remember what had happened in Somalia. The body of an American soldier was dragged through the streets.
The reaction would definitely be "An eye for an eye." Displaying any picture on either side is barbaric and demonstrates the behavior of incivility. It is not a good move if eventually we want to have a relationship in the Arab world. Change must also include correcting global wrongs where ever the source.
