9/11 Suspect: Artist Drew My Nose Too Big GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba, June 5, 2008 (CBS/AP) The confessed mastermind of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on America said a courtroom artist at his arraignment Thursday made his nose look too big.
No photographers were allowed inside the courtroom for the first appearance of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four alleged coconspirators on war crimes charges. So it fell to artist Janet Hamlin to provide the world with the first image of the al Qaeda kingpin since his capture in Pakistan in 2003.
Her rendering was reviewed to make sure it didn't include classified information, and wound up in Mohammed's hands when his defense team was given a look, said Pentagon spokesman Navy Cmdr. Jeffrey Gordon.
Mohammed wasn't pleased.
"I heard he said I should compare it to the FBI photo of him," Hamlin said, clutching a copy of the much-publicized capture photo that showed Mohammed in a T-shirt looking disheveled and unshaven.
Asked if Mohammed had a point, Hamlin said: "I agree totally" before rushing back to the courtroom to downsize his nose.

I’ll be happy to punch it repeatedly until it matches the sketch.
Heaven forbid we put a pair of underwear on his head......
How can Scrappleface possibly compete with this?
The guy’s whole head is too big.
Yet another ingenious form of torture! Can nothing match the cruelty of the Americans?
I woulda made it bigger instead of downsizing it! The sketch artist is supposed to please the turd? I’d make it bigger every day!
He’d look better with an elongated neck.
I hope that the artist at least was able to capture his nice complexion.
Do the fireballs coming out of these collapsing buildings make me look fat?
Al Qaeda people don’t take trials seriously.
But of course the liberal terrorist lovers will blame America even for this! They will say we should commission a famous artist to do a portrait of the slob in water colors to show good faith that we are fair and just.
What’s with the sweater under the tee shirt? Eewwwwww
Why is this trash still breathing?
Let's see a photo to compare - looks like pretty decent art work to me (I'm a professional portrait artist. Many people don't like photos or art work of themselves...no matter how true it is. They have a heightened view of themselves.)
Now THAT’S scary...
Tells you something about the vain little pr!ck, doesn’t it. I hope satan gets a chance really soon to gnaw on his nose.
