This story was already covered in the news from at least May 2004. The sculptor was PAID and quite handsomely under Iraqi standards to do this. The work was NOT done out of the kindness of his heart or for free.

Srvn N Iraq's version is an urban legend started shortly after the story was reported. Here are the real details: http://www.snopes.com/photos/military/kalat.asp
