okay, seriously, the first thing i thought was "look! he's giving saddam a joint!" lol
i'm so unpolitical its sad ;)
the actual story is:
smiling Iraqi man beats a poster of President Saddam Hussein with his shoe after a U.S. Marine (L) started to take the poster down in Safwan, southern Iraq, March 21, 2003. Safwan, a small border town, was clearly outside Saddam's control on Friday. Kuwaiti television showed Iraqis mingling cautiously with American soldiers, one of whom received a peck on the cheek from a local man. (Reuters Tv/Reuters)
