AUSTIN, United States (AFP) - Fifteen-month-old Benton is the spitting image of his father, a US soldier who died in Iraq two years before his son was born.

"He looks so much like his father, it's kind of scary," his mother Kathleen Smith told AFP, as she talked about her unusual decision to have her soldier-husband's baby posthumously, using semen frozen before he was deployed.

I'm not impressed by this story. Think about the child here. His entire life will now revolve around the strange way he was brought into this world, how his Dad was a hero (whether he was or not), and that the Iraqi war was an important necessity in the history of the USA.
