ACCELERATED AGING FROM THE LES ENFANT TERRIBLE PROJECT! Didn't kick in till his 30's and by then he was already dead. Both Solid and Snake aged normally when as children, the accelarated aging wasn't appearant till in their 30's, which was shown by Solid who looked about in his 30's still during MGS2.

Also, what proof/source does anyone have that Liquid was in the Middle East during his childhood? It's only known he was in the UK, he didn't get into the middle east till he was 18.

I think people are just riding the bandwagon with this one, wishing for the kid to be Liquid for whatever reason but seriously, not every kid is BB's son (people thought Chico's appearance in the GZ trailer was that of Solid or Liquid too and that was disproven even IN the trailer but that didn't prevent people from wishful thinking.)
