A toy Arab-looking soldier depicts Taliban and al Qaeda fighters in the middle east, or war and violence in general.


An Arab looking toy soldier stands in isolation under a white spotlight with black darkness behind. A reflection of the soldier shines up from the floor out of the darkness. Glowing in tan and golden hues, the soldier holds a gun drawn in his right hand and a sword in his left hand. He stands ominously in a robe and turbine with dark shadows playing across his face and body. The toy soldier is prepared to fight or to kill what seems to be threatening him. A sense of fear and doom and uncertainty looms. Sentiments of war, oppression and politcal uprising are portrayed by this lone figurine which seems to come to life through dramatic lighting and a graphic pose.
