the taliban claims osama is still alive of course. the conspiracy nuts will be out in droves soon.
from the Daily Mail
The White House has delayed the release of photographs showing Osama bin Laden's body.
White House officials are afraid that releasing the images, described as 'gruesome' and thought to show the dead al-Qaeda leader with a massive head wound, would offend 'sensitivities' in the Muslim world.
It had been previously thought President Barack Obama had decided to release at least one photo showing Osama Bin Laden shortly after he was killed by U.S. Navy SEALs.
The news came as a Taliban spokesman demanded to see photographic evidence of the assassination.

The pictures of Daniel Pearl and other who have been beheaded,or others who were gutted and hung from road overpass's and photographed and put out was offensive and gory too.Dragging bodies thru the streets and celebrating as they dismember them.
Fuck them.Let 'em get pissed off.The more of them that come out of the shadows to do shit is more we can blow the fuck away and be done with.
This sensitive, feely touchy,dont want to upset the fucking Muslims shit always pisses me off.
If we did the stupid shit Obama wanted to do also with the way we handled Terrorist prisoners over in Panama and shut the place down,we would'nt have been able to pop a cap in Osama's head.

The fact that the Taliban wants us to release the pictures further convinces me that we shouldn't.

Yeah. Just tell the Taliban to call his house. If he doesn't answer, he's dead.

They're going to release some photos. The administration is just waiting for sufficient demand from the public. I just heard that a poll indicated 56% of Americans want the photos released. When demand is high enough, the photos will come out. It's all about the numbers. *sigh*

ABC News
President Obama is increasingly doubtful that there's a compelling reason to release a photograph of Osama bin Laden's corpse, ABC News has learned.
There don't seem to be many skeptics of bin Laden's death in the Muslim world, with bin Laden's wife having survived the attack to identify bin Laden's death both to the Navy SEALs and Pakistani authorities.
Meanwhile, sources say, Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton are advising the president about concerns at the Pentagon and State Department that releasing a photograph could prompt a backlash against the US for killing bin Laden where one does not seem to currently exist.

a warning--->
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – As U.S. officials debate whether or not to release bloody pictures of a dead Osama bin Laden, hackers and scammers are using links and emails promising those pictures to try to infect your computer.
The FBI says these emails could even appear to come from your friends, claiming to show either photos of bin Laden dead or a video of his death.
But it’s actually a virus or malware that could steal personal information or cause your entire system to crash.
Officials also warn that internet searches can also direct you to sites with malware or virus. And the bad links are also popping up on Facebook and other social media.
As of now, they say there are no released photos or videos.
Internet security experts say often times, these websites will tell you that you need to download a codec, or video player, to watch the video, but that’s actually malware or a virus.

I remember the iconic photographs of the aftermath of Civil War battles.
They serve as a reminder, not only of our history, but the ghastly consequences of war.
If Bin Laden’s corpse is a product of the “War on Terror”, then release the photo.
If not (and it is the result of a murder), then release it, too.
Just like a dead mobster pic.
Or a dead Tombstone outlaw.
Or a lynched Negro.
Every picture tells a story . . . doughnut?

Wondering if the hoopla over retribution in regards to the photos is hype.
Perhaps Osama was not as influential anymore as people seem to be giving
him credit for.
What is everyone's thoughts on how much of his influence remains?

That piece of paper must look great in a resume.
Be sure and list the drugs that it takes to keep the paper valid.

He is probably more powerful dead than he was alive.
martyrdom and all that bullshit that seems so important to the extremist movement.
now all they are waiting for is proof of his death. pretty much just like the rest of us.

Fixed it for you.
I don't need to see pictures. Besides, even if the pictures are released, I'm sure the crazies will just say they're fake. The administration will never be able to convince all the doubters.

The last numbers I heard were that 42% of Americans want to see proof.
you're fond of polls, maybe you should reach just a little further than just around obamas waist.
