Facebook will no longer ban people from sharing the Pulitzer Prize winning 1972 photo "The Terror of War," which shows a 9-year-old girl running after being injured in a napalm attack. "Because of its status as an iconic image of historical importance, the value of permitting sharing outweighs the value of protecting the community by removal, so we have decided to reinstate the image on Facebook where we are aware it has been removed," Facebook said in a statement.
