Take a look at this photo from CNN



Here is the accompanying text:

A billboard on the streets of the capital Baghdad shows a man painting close to the face of al-Qaeda's Iraq front man Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and a slogan that reads:" For the sake of life, stop terrorism." In an Internet statement, militants loyal to al-Qaeda in Iraq have threatened to sharply intensify their campaign of violence unless U.S. and Iraqi forces end a major offensive near the Syrian border.

So does anyone else see things about this photo that make it seem blatantly fake?

I have to say that the green splashes seem very "off" as they appear to be covering his hands, too. And the colors are just too vivid. He looks photoshopped over the photo, to me. And there's no way someone painted those symbols on there...they look like they are computer generated.

-But I'm sure that this is all rather obvious.

I know! It is just a horrible fake picture.
