People will believe anything they are told.
This really is PRICELESS!!!
Read the following explanation before looking at the picture! This picture is not doctored.
Most Syrians struggle to even read Arabic, much less have a clue about English.
So, how do a group of Syrian protest leaders create the most impact with
their signs by having the standard "Death To Americans"(etc.) slogans
printed in English?
Answer: They simply hire an English-speaking civilian to translate and
write their statements into English. Unfortunately, in this case, they were
unaware that the "civilian" insurance company employee hired for the job
was a retired US Army sergeant!
Obviously, pictures of this protest rally never made their way through the
Arab TV networks, but the results were "Priceless."

Hate to break the news but it ABSOLUTELY is doctored. If you blow up the image you will find that there is no tonal variation anywhere in the solids of the text. Sorry, but that one is an impossibility.
Nice work on the texturing and the bluring around the edge was a nice touch but the crisp perfection of the letters is another give away.
