From "Shock ‘N Awe" to "I Was Here," World Humanitarian Day Evolves

From 9/11 to Shock'N Awe to "I Was Here," World Humanitarian Day EvolvesWorld Humanitarian Day
set annually for August 19th was originally designated to recognize
humanitarian personnel and those who had lost their lives working for
humanitarian causes. It’s origin was a direct result of a massive
bombing attack of Iraq by America and its allies, escalating on March
21, 2003. Known in military parlance as "Shock ‘n Awe," and taken from
Sun Tzu’s "The Art of War"
(544-496 BC), it’s a military doctrine based on the use of overwhelming
power to paralyze an adversary’s perception of the battlefield and
destroy its will to fight back.
