It looks altared to me

It looks quite funny

I really hope that this turns out to be an altered photo. First off there is already enough tension there and this surely won't do anything to help, and secondly this soldier is from my home state and I think that someone from Louisiana would have a little more sense than that. I know that cajuns are pretty damn crazy, but not stupid.

Why would a marine post this anyway?
If it's real it was coerced.
But it's not real because an Arab is not going to say "knocked up".

I'm pretty sure the soldier would have written it and given it to the boy. Though, the writing is pretty good for an American soldier

You don&#39;t aim to refrain? :huh:

This photo issue would seem to fit well with the rhetoric which states that we are in the midst of another Viet Nam.

Soon the U.S. and Iraq will be inundated with illegitimate Iraqi/American children, international lawyers will seek child-support for them, soldiers will be disappearing in Iraq so as to assimilate and start families, we&#39;ll have a huge MIA-in-Iraq movement, etc.

Ah, the memories.... <_<
