I got this from a friend

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."
