Why does a book about the struggles of inmates at Guantanamo have a seductive woman in hijab and eyeliner on the cover?

I think it may be the picture of the writer's eyes - is it ? Does a picture of a beautiful woman's eyes have to always be interpreted as 'seductive' ?

It's also the way the photo is cropped.
Yes, definitely.
As a sculptor, I personally find portraits of young 'perfect' women the most difficult to do as I have to make the viewer see past what I know they will interpret as 'seductiveness'.
