I could be wrong, but I'm not a racist.

Which is what you are implying when you say I'm making the "All blacks look alike" mistake.

I wouldn't bet money on it being a model, but their are enough inconsistonsies in the picture to investigate the idea. Look at the face, the weapon, the clothing, the wall. To me they look like they've been touched up with a bit of paint and dirt and propped up. I've done some scale modeling and this looks more like a model than a photo to me, which is why I said looks to me like they are one in the same instead of blanketly stating they are the same.

Then consider the likelihood of them allowing their hostage to remain in battle dress. Perhaps they wanted a shot to prove they had a soldier and not a civilian though. Still seems unlikely to me. I would guess he'd have been relieved of any equipment at the first oppurtunity by his captors.
