[MortalLock]

[blanda]

Good move by Barry O!

[icancount2one]

The fact is this. Once again, Obama has made a decision that throws what was an aparent fact in question by some. Once again, he opens himself up for criticism, even though his actions were waranted, and correct. If it were me, I would do this. I would issue a statement along with a picture. My statement: "The United States put a kill order out on bin Laden. The order was carried out. Here is the proof. Live with it". That is how to earn respect.

He's allowing room for doubt on purpose. After a serious political opponent jumps on this latest crazy bandwagon he'll release the irrefutable proof.

Obama knows how to play his fukking cards.

Don't think so pal. He played this card to cover his ass on the last one. (The obvious forged BC)

Really, the establishment is testing you mindless fuks. Seeing how much they can get away with. But if the people do wise up and the establishment does get caught, they can hang it all on their goat, President Soetoro.

[falconticket]

He will release the photos, but he has to wait for a special waiver from the Ha gov first. It could take a year or two.

[Andy117]

He's probably already been dead. The government has already covered their tracks if he is still alive by saying that he would have made a video saying he's alive just in case he was killed. The government has made it impossible for them to be wrong, at least semantically.

So what would the government have gained by keeping his death secret? If you think he's been dead for years wouldn't Bush have pulled this right before his difficult reelection in 2004? Or why wouldn't Obama wait until say late October 2012 to do this?

no chance, Bush couldn't have gained a third term....so no he wouldn't have done it in 2008 when he wasn't even a candidate

[lakerboy]

who cares if he is dead. the us govt covered up the whole 911 thng. us pilots flew those planes into the buildings. bin laden is just a figure created by the usa to make it seem like there is someone to blame. only man to blame is bush jr. end of story.

oops meant 04

[cobalt king]

i want to see pictures of his rotting carcus that get updated everyday until hes a skeleton, then I want to disinegrate his bones by letting the 911 families piss on him simultaneously

I figured ya did just wanted to have some fun fora minute..it's a boring night.

So what would the government have gained by keeping his death secret?

Usama serves as bogeyman. If the American public can buy into the notion that the government has to spend trillions of dollars and kill over a million people just to find one person, then the government is able to control the public's thoughts and emotions very easily. The government wants to make it's citizens feel more patriotic and nationalistic -- they want to make the public think that the military has to hunt down the most evil man in the history of the world. If there was no specific target (just terrorists in general), then the public wouldn't approve of the war as much. By creating a bogeyman, the government has free reign to decrease civil liberties domestically and increase troop presence around the world.

If you think he's been dead for years wouldn't Bush have pulled this right before his difficult reelection in 2004?

I'm not too certain Usama was dead in 2004 (though I think he died in late 2001). Regardless, Bush already started wars in both Iraq and Afghanistan right before 2004. He also was able to make the claim that he took down what was then called "the most evil man in the world" in Saddam Hussein. Weren't things supposed to get better after Hussein's death by the way? Apparently not.

Or why wouldn't Obama wait until say late October 2012 to do this?

The US has been getting rouged up with problems in Lybia, the military is not doing well in Afghanistan, Iraq, or Pakistan, the economy is in a wreck, the value of the dollar is decreasing, gasoline prices are rising, and Obama's poll numbers are decreasing. Obama saying that he killed UBL will help his poll numbers and will also make the public momentarily forget the real problems. October 2012 is too far away and wouldn't help Obama as much. Obama needs this so he can say that he isn't soft on terrorism and to get a good bump in the polls now.

[rocky502]

The nutty conspiracy theorists on this board says all you need to know about why the photos would do nothing for anyone. The nuts that think he has been dead for years will continue to believe that. The nuts that think he is still alive will say what a crappy photoshop job they did. Releasing the photo would prove nothing to these nutjobs. Obama is right on this one. There is nothing to prove to the wingnut conspiracy theorists that would satisfy their overactive paranoid uneducated asses

October 2012 would be perfect time for a bump to assure reelection.

[dom75]

I was listening to GMA this morning and now there is conflicting stories on if there was a heavy gun fight battle or not within the compound. Some reports say that there are very few bullet holes within the establishment. Then they go on to say that Obamer doesn't want to show the pics as they are too gorry with 2 bullet holes to the head. Um ok, let me get this straight, we can show pics/video on the nightly news of dead people from war, accidents, natural disasters, and etc.... plus we have bloody/violent movies showing in theaters and on tv. However, showing Osama's bullet ridden head is too gorry to show..... WTF ! It doesn't bother me if they show the pics or not, but still give the American people what they want. I seen a poll last night showing that 70 % of the American people want to see the pics/video. If I am not mistaken, isn't Obamer a Muslim himself.... kinda makes an American feel like he is respecting "his" people and not the good ole USA.

who cares if he is dead. the us govt covered up the whole 911 thng. us pilots flew those planes into the buildings. bin laden is just a figure created by the usa to make it seem like there is someone to blame. only man to blame is bush jr. end of story.

[floridagolfer]

When all those nutcases decide they need to scream at the U.S. in a protest in some god-forsaken city in the Middle East, why give them a picture to put on their placards? If they want to believe OBL is still alive, good for them; I hope they're waiting around for him to give further instructions.

Yes because the government is undefeated at honesty in these types of events right? Oh except for

Ranger Tillman
Jessica Lynch
Gulf of Tonkin
Yemen hotel earlier this spring
and so on and so on....

Just because you call bullshitt on certain things does not make you a conspiracy nut.....show some logic.

nah, guys like him just need to be ignored. He's either attention whoring or really that stupid, either way what's the point?

[Jmschoba]

I don't believe in our president and find it extremely hard to trust him therefore I believe it is not
In his best decision to not release some kind of evidence

[The Sensei]

Can't expect them to release it, but I would to see this guy dead

You are as stupid and bad as that crazy worthless team you pull for. Another conspiracy nut case. The tragedy is that they allow idiots like you to vote. Why don't you tell us how that piece of crap team of yours is going to win the NBA title this year?

That piece of crap team, is two-time champ... You expect to them to win every year??? Oh you're a disgruntled central Californian.

Actually I live in Southern California, and could care less about the Lakers, or any other NBA team for that matter. The good news is that when the Lakers finally are eliminated, the animals that live near Staple Center will have one less reason to riot and destroy property. Just where do you live? Are you even an American Citizen?

Why? Do you want to find me? If you do, you will NOT walk away from the meeting. I made a living putting idiots like you in their place. Any time boy. Bring your health insurance card. It's time for you to put up or shut up. Now where did you say you live? Let's hear it boy. This is why idiots like you end up in hospitals. You try to play big boy on the internet, and then when you actually run into someone that knows who you are, you wonder what happened to you as you are waiting to be seen in an ER.
