- Description
A series of four vignettes shows the history of diplomatic processes from the apes to present day. In the first scene an ape hits another on the head with a stick; in the second a caveman hits another on the head with a bone; in the third a knight hits another on the head with a mace; in the fourth United State's Secretary of Defence, Donald Rumsfeld, hits and Iraqi on the head with a missile. Refers to the United States led invasion of Iraq.
When the United States invaded Iraq on 20 March 2003 they had broken international law and ignored the United Nation's protocol of first trying solve conflicts through diplomacy to avoid war at all costs. Countless Iraqi civilians were killed in United States missile attacks.
