You're right, though. In fact, by the position of the soldier's feet, and the position of their hips, it appears that they are bearing more weight than a styrofoam block would cause. In fact, it looks like they are lifting a concrete block.

What's the difference? If it were concrete, then Saddam would find it a bit more difficult to get himself out of the hole from the inside.
