I cant seem to find my answer...
...but sorry in advance if it has already been posted.

With the whole "capture a soldier, but he is actually a doll" story...
has it been determined who made this tape?

Was this some American kid doing it to show how ridiculous our media and policies are, such as the box cutter guy with SWA. Or could they possibly have had this dolll in Iraq to make this video there?? I couldnt imagine this, but who knows....

1. Discussed on Countdown last night
It was almost certainly done outside the ME because the writing on the backdrop appears to be copied or traced by someone who has no knowledge of arabic. It's very clumsy looking. Also, it was posted by a new member to a site, using a generic name ("Abu Jihad") and claiming to be part of the equally generic "Mujahadeen Brigade".

Prank, but it caught the AP and Reuters with their pants down. Too bad they don't jump on that prank of a prez we've got so quickly.
