Swords of Victory


Hands of Victory, Baghdad, Iraq
One cool scene in the Green Zone was the aerial shots of the Swords of Victory arches. They're big, they're impressive, and they remind me of Soviet style monuments. We would never build anything so gauche, would we? There are two of these things. You can see both in this photo and in the map below. I also found a map of Baghdad that shows just where the Green Zone is.

Update January 2017 replaced missing picture.
