Uh, Yahoo?

What do these two stories have in common?

Iraqi police say female suicide bomber kills 35 (AP)

and

US military deaths in Iraq war at 4,243

Give up?

Yahoo’s news feed shipped both with the same picture.

This is the Reuters picture that they used.

The text accompanying the photo:

U.S. Army Spct. Veona Lobado (L) and sister Nancy Lobado-Hale are reunited at a ceremony welcoming U.S. Army soldiers returning from duty in Iraq at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs, Colorado February 12, 2009. About 280 soldiers from the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division returned following their 15-month deployment to Iraq.

So why is that the photo they decided to use with those stories?
