Via Solomonia, some examples of the damage done to the human body by bomb-shattered metal fragments in the service of murderous politics.
As the intifada got worse and worse in 2002 and 2003, I saw a few news stories showing photos of x-rays from suicide bombing victims.
The most horrible were the fragments of the Calvin Klein watch inside Michal's neck. You can see her x-rays, among many others, at the website of Inside Terrorism: The X-ray Project. This exhibit is also an installation, partly funded by the David Project, which you can bring to your school, museum, or other location.
Then there is the Palestinian woman wounded in the Gaza beach explosion, sent to an Israeli hospital in a coma, after first being treated at a Palestinian hospital. The Israeli medical staff isn't right coming out and saying that the Palestinian hospital removed almost all of the shrapnel in her body, contrary to standard medical practice, even though she was already severely wounded from the bomb. But it's pretty obvious.
Now why would they do that . . . .
