I wouldn’t retract the conclusion that a photo of Obama’s head was placed on someone else’s body. See ‘jacket comparison’ photos.
I have compared head sizes in the photo just using pixel height. From a pure size comparison its not really off.
Obama head is around 295 pixels +/- a few. Mullen and Donilon’s heads are around 280 pixels +/-. So just from size its not off.
But all this ‘we watched it real time’ seems improbable.
The CIA has posted the photos of Panetta running the show - from Langly!
The pictures all show Sunday afternoon timestamps with people in the same clothes they had on late Sunday night - indicating staged photos during the working day Sunday.
Pretty well documented here:
