Have there been any pictures of the dead Bin Laden? |
|
I'm not trying to stir up anything - I just want to know are there pictures?

4. You'd think so if it really happened |
|
Saddam, both his sons and every other terrorist's photos go global as fast as he was "buried at sea" within a few hours.

8. The difference is those who had access. |
|
If it was low level grunts conducting the operation or locals around, we would see cell phone videos.
These were professionals. They have video and pictures, but are not releasing them. Not yet anyway. I think they will come out sometime in the next couple of weeks as people seek verification.

9. Remember who was in office when Saddam was killed |
|
Plus Saddam was not killed by Americans. He had a trial and Iraqis killed him.

7. As far as I know, nothing officially released by US govt. |
|
I think they should, and maybe they will later on after the news is no longer hot.

10. Oh, I guarantee you there are PLENTY of pictures: highly classified |
|
pictures shot by our SEALS on scene.
Whether or not they will be released is being debated as I type this.

12. unless you are thinking there is some 'conspiratorial' nature to the event... |
|
i don't need to step in dogshit to discover that it stinks...
in this age, are you trying to say some 'picture' proves something to you?
mfer is either dead or not...why do we need 'proof' that is as possibly as bogus as the 'truth'...
you don't need a picture...of course, a lot of people just want to view the gruesome...

17. Your argument is laughable. And so I laugh! |

:rofl:
"unless you are thinking there is some 'conspiratorial' nature to the event..." - "Only people who believe in conspiracy theories would be interested in seeing photos/video". This is going to be good, I can smell it!
"don't need to step in dogshit to discover that it stinks" - I admit, I haven't heard that one before. So seeing some photos/video would just tell you what you already know. So why bother? Great line of reasoning there, let me know how far that gets you. Actually, I'm sure you'd say it's gotten you terribly far!
"in this age, are you trying to say some 'picture' proves something to you?" - And so you insinuate that if any photos/video would be worthless anyway(presumably because of digital manipulation?), so what's the point?
"mfer is either dead or not...why do we need 'proof' that is as possibly as bogus as the 'truth'... - It took a bit but it looks like you're harkening back to your previous "point" (and I use that term very generously) to indicate any photo/video could be possibly bogus. Not doing yourself any favors there.
"you don't need a picture...of course, a lot of people just want to view the gruesome..." - And two wrap up it all up and insinuatory ad-hominem. Those who look for photos/video do so to titilate some desire to view gruesome death photos.
I love it! You win the prize today!

We can never release them. The radicals would use them against us.

15. Yes, and Chuck Todd on M$NBComcast said they |
|
were pretty gruesome cause he was shot in the head. The White House is still deciding whether to make them public or not.

16. Honestly, I think they should |
|
I don't deny that OBL is dead, and that the SEALs took him out
BUT I think the pictures could speak volumes. More than the Sadaam sons pics.
