No reason at all to believe that the pic has been altered in any way.

The "original" version appeatred in the NYTs with Siddiqi erased (and very clumsily) and the picture cropped on the right side to make it appear that the guy who owned the apartment was standing next to the couch.

Also, there is no reason to believe that the boys on the couch are holding hands...that's just not there.

Now, do I believe the pic is genuine? Yes. Do I believe that it is a picture of two queers in NYC circa 1981? Hell yes.

Do you believe Pakistanis have nine or ten fingers on their right hands? It's been blown up to show that over and over before.

I believe the same. Didn’t you work in that area around that time?
