Brian Ledbetter has a hilarious retrospective photo album of the ubiquitous “Islamic Rage Boy” (pictured above). Rage Boy appears to be a professional protester in Srinagar, India, who can be found at virtually every Muslim street protest in the area, screaming for the cameras on cue.
As he always looks like the most fanatical and angry zealot in the crowd, Western photojournos love to photograph him. Consequently he has appeared in the press all over the world under a dozen different banners and causes, as a Kashmiri nationalist, a member of Muslim League Jammu Kashmir, a Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen striker, a Pakistani Peoples Political Party representative, an activist from All Parties Hurriyat Conference, etc. etc.
