The "Deaders".....

Conspiracies conjure that Osama bin Laden still lives

The decision to drop terror chieftain Osama bin Laden’s corpse into the Arabian Sea was the final meticulous step in a raid whose details were calculated to exert deadly force but also to achieve maximum effect in the propaganda war: the White House was careful to say bin Laden’s body had been treated according to Islamic tradition, but also to deny his followers a shrine.

But while the watery grave may help diminish bin Laden’s status as a martyr to his followers, it was already fueling conspiracy theories; as the administration resisted releasing even photographs of the slain terrorist leader on Monday, a predictable haze of myth and rumor had already, inevitably, begun to rise around him.

The White House said Monday morning that it is running DNA tests on some element of Bin Laden’s remains, and that it’s debating releasing a photograph taken of him after the lethal U.S. raid on his Pakistani compound.

“The United States Government has not yet been made a decision on whether there will be a photo release,” White House spokesman Tommy Vietor said in an email.

The two, top members of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, both said they would defer to President Barack Obama on whether to go public with the photos, but leaned toward releasing them or other evidence that bin Laden was killed. The administration is said to be grappling with the decision, because of the gruesome nature of the shots and potential repercussions of widely publicizing such images

the Birth Certificate!

Oh, sorry, that was last week.

was shot in the eye, that can be messy.

gore and guts. In fact, I can't even look when my own blood is being taken. So if they do release the photo of him killed, I am sure you will all have your confirmations ready.. and I will take your word for it.

at my high school, when everybody old enough was doing it... I never had a problem with needles before that, but they ripped my vein open and I almost passed out and had a bruise all down my arm for a month or two. Ever since then, I can't stand having blood taken. Needles scare me now.
