I don't get it. I see some strong imagery though. I think it would be unfair to you if I were to rate it now, as confused as I am. I'll assume that you are saying that US is acting as a blind infant commanding machines of war. So, why is he holding the flag low behind his back? Shouldn't he be waving it high? I mean, if you're trying to say that the US is acting as a blind child, what's the hesitiation? I'd expect him to be proudly commanding the aircraft somehow while waving his banner yet more proudly. And the infant is transparent. Is that significant somehow, it confuses me. If it's just for visual appeal, you may consider taking it out, because it clouds the message. If it's significant, I missed it. Now, the gesture. It totally contradicts the entire feeling I've gotten from the rest of the image. If he's the US, acting as a blind child, then "F@#% You" isn't the real emotion is it? That gesture shows a conscious decision to use force without regard for the victims. The extended middle finger and the innocence of a blind child seems awfully incongruent, don't you think? And finally, I can't figure out for the life of me why one of the airplanes is upside down. I can see no reason at all for it, so I dismiss it as a mistake. I doubt that "mistake" is what you wanted to convey, so I have to ask: Is there a better way to express what it is you're trying to say? There is so much that is said in this image, and not much of it makes sense. You've compiled some powerful imagery, are you sure you know what you've said with it? It's very delicate to make such statements, and it's plain dangerous to make this kind of statement without really understanding the language.
