Not an exact match, but you might be onto something here.

This is from a google image search of venus. I can't tell if it is close to the osama one or not, just throwing it out there :-)

They look very close to the same in some ways don't they?

Oh no...doing a search for moon photos and went to a Clementine site since so many photos..then ran into a conspiracy...I'm still reading and tin foil is on./

I'd say it's the same globe rotated 90°...

If you look at the impact craters, the pattern seems to match up. Suppose in the upper photo you rotated the picture about 1/4 turn towards the top left on an axis running from the upper right hand corner to the lower left corner. This would put the craters in the same position as the daleel photo.

There are five impact craters in the blue area, two almost dead center(before imaginary rotation) and 3 to the lower left of them. I believe 4 of the five (the leftmost 4, excluding the rightmost crater in the center) are exact matches to craters that can be seen below a cloud deck in the daleel photo. All crater I'm refering to are in the predominantly blue area, not the brown appearing portion, though 4 of the five craters themselves show as brown. the fifth one looks blue and is lowest in a line with two other in the lower left group.

It's hard to describe, but hopefully you all can follow what I'm pointing out. It's difficult to distinguish what is actually a crater and what is cloud in the daleel photo.

Or, maybe i just have an over-active imagination :)

Keep in mind the daleel pic seems to show a cloud deck while the Drudge pic doesn't. They had to find that pic somewhere. What telescopes or probes could have taken the daleel pic? we need to find that pic with an identity to be sure.

I do know when I saw that pic of Venus I posted something clicked
