In addition to it being an old stock photo, a freeper yesterday pointed out that the photos original file name indicated that the photo was taken in Afghanistan. In other words, it was "fake but accurate."

When I saw the photo here a couple of days ago, the first think that hit me was the kid. I thought he looked more like an Afghan, not an Iraqi. Look at the color of his hair and skin.

The scene of the rocket attack was in Pakistan, close to the Afghan border. It's not strange that somebody would look like an Afghan.
