The sculture pictured above is real, and it was indeed crafted by an Iraqi sculptor from bronze recovered by melting down statues of former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein, but the explanatory text accompanying the photo is quite misleading: The Iraqi sculptor was not "forced by Saddam Hussein to make the many hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam," he did not produce the memorial shown because he was "so grateful that the Americans liberated his country," and the monument was not his idea. Members of the U.S. Army paid the sculptor, who had previously worked on a few other Saddam statues, to create the work pictured according to a design of their choosing.
Also, just a warning that a virus warning popped up on the page--I was protected, so no damage, but just a warning!!!
Had I known that, I wouldn't have posted it. Nothing came up on mine. Maybe I'd better do a scan just to make sure. Why would people want to do that?Quote:
