Long but good article about the photo issue. Great graphics/photos too. If you don't have the time to read the whole thing, even a scan is worth it.

This one came out in the Italian press yesterday or the day before. I captured it on muy own server, but cannot find it in the original place any more.

It is supposedly of him while at the US base in Afghanistan before being flown out to the carrier.

It is unconfirmed and gruesome...and some say its been reuted but I have not seen that yet. But it looks like the real thing to me...massive head wound above his left eye

These same people had no problem releasing Abu Graib pictures, repeatedly showing them, looped for months on end....

But this is the ‘age of Obama’, gotta protect Muslim ‘sensibilities’...

Within 4 months of Pelosi’s ouster, Osama is allegedly killed. That’s why they are pointing the finger at Pakistan, because the treason and traitor acts came from within the U.S.

Osami certainly did not age gracefully.

That one looks just a bit too “clean” for me. What kind of bullet gouges a four-inch furrow right across the head in a semispherical pattern and exposes the brain without damaging it in any perceivable way?

From the article...

They are all fake until released by the WH.

Just describe it. We’ll get the picture.

All we’re seeing are fakes anyway.

Photoshop is a great tool for propaganda.

If they do release a picture, I would like one 8 X 10 and six wallet sized.

Some might question that viewpoint...

After watching our citizens jumping to their deaths from burning buildings, beheadings on TV, and our troop’s horrific injuries hunting down the piece of crap, I think we can handle viewing a terrorist with a hole in his head.

I watched 3000 people burn to death, jump from 100 stories to their death or die in engineered plane crashes. I think I can take seeing their murderer photographed with less than a complete skull.

Two explanations for all this gruesome talk, at the same time they pretend they don’t want to release gruesome photos.

1. Obama never can make up his mind about anything. So he keeps kicking it down the road.

2. They want to keep the idea of finally nailing Bin Ladin alive, both as a way to get people to forget that fake birth certificate, and as a way to play it for propaganda purposes, hoping to get Obie’s poll numbers up. Bush couldn’t finish the job, but Obama could.

But I doubt that will work.

Some could possibly leak out,...but I really doubt it.
The only people around the body were military. If there was a ‘real’ leak, then it could be easily traced to the chopper or the CV, carrier(ship).

Whomever would do it, would be in Leavenworth for most of the rest of his life.

That photo is a fake. I also posted it yesterday on FR. It was shown by others to be a fake.

Here is the original
