    fake football photo published

    anyone see that photo in the paper supposed to be from iraq.it showed a soldier with a local kid holding a piece of cardboard saying all the best from glentoran fans in iraq or similar.
    apparently it was a hoax as the original photo had welcome to us soldiers or similar written on the card board.someone had published the photo on the internet on a site where you could click on the photo and put what you like on the piece of cardboard.

    This is like, so two weeks ago (although the origin of the original photo is a matter of considerable controversy.)

    My own pathetic contribution (I'm sure it's been done already):

    Found this funny for a while, then I found out what the original message was, and all It left me with was the feeling that the soldier in the photo is a pr!ck.

    A joke in poor taste

    Well, what he's done is consistent with orders from the very top, so they're all - from Bush down - implicated as far as I'm concerned.
