Bin Laden Death Photo #?,??? : "Well, At Least This One Doesn't Look Fake" (First of an endless series in 5. 4. 3. 2. 1....)

110504-bin-laden-dead-photo.jpg

In from Doug Ross who notes:O.G. relays this photo of what is presumed to be UBL's carcass before it was dispatched to the deep. I can't verify its authenticity but, then again, I can't not verify its authenticity either.

Gentlemen, start your conspiracy engines!

Needs a bullet hole over the left eyebrow.

Splatter of head on "his" left eyebrow makes it difficult to determine.

It depends on the angle, but that one looks pretty neat to have been dispatched with a bullet to the head.

Of course it can be flipped.

Or unflipped.

Entry / exit can be to the side of brow or the skull can be deformed on impact. It happens.

Point is that there are going to be lots of these until the "official" one is released. And after that there are going to be a whole lot more.

Releasing 1 of a series and keeping the others in the series secret only invites conspiratorial thinking on what "must be" on the unseen photos.

That will be how it plays out. Mark my words.

I don't know...it looks too "good".

I cannot convey how disgusted even my WIFE is that Obama will not release the vid of the raid...Can't let mere soldiers hog/share the limelight, can we?

@JewishOdysseus:

Releasing the video would defeat the purpose of keeping the identity of the Navy Seals involved private. Revealing the footage would immediately put those men and/or women in danger.

@Parker, eh, nah. Besides, you can always tell who the seals are because they run around in khaki shorts and blue t-shirts.

Seems like a fake. Doesn't resemble verbal descriptions.

The area where his beard overlays his shirt looks a little 'shopped.

The Jewish Odysseus has one of the best comments on the photo released of the President and his staff watching the monitors:

All the big shot bureaucrats and phony security tough guys (look at Clapper and Brennan, I HAVE to laff), looking so CONCERNED and INTENSE...My gaawwwwd, they practically killed Bin Laden themselves with their stares!!

Recall all the big events of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars when Bush was President... VOLUMES of video, satellite photos, all kinds of photography SHOWING THE HEROISM OF OUR TROOPS...Did we ever see a shot of the Prez and his advisers monitoring the monitors?

And notice how seamlessly this "we can't reveal operational secrets" bullsh!t enables them to pretend their spotlight-hogging shows they care even MORE about the success of our troops.

Obama has had these images for more than 36 hours, have we even seen a single redacted photo of the real heroes in action? A few seconds of shadowy vid? Of course not.

Because Obama is a clinical narcissistic egomaniac. If young American Navy Seals are hogging the air-time, the Messiah looks less like a hero. Hence those surreal photos like the one above, where we're supposed to be inspired by our peerless leaders intently watching TV screens during a time of war.
