They could easily be faked, one way or another.
As I said Thorn, do you honestly think along with Obama that the USA will not get reprisals? Yes I agree the photos could also be faked, but even faked photos are better than none at all. The Americans had no qualms when it came to showing photos of Sadam’s two sons and some of his close advisers being hung; you have a very soft and controversial president.

I don’t disagree for one minute that OBL was not intelligent and wouldn’t exploit the truth if he were alive and free to do so. My point was that if he was not dead but captured there would be a reason for withholding photos. This is all too bloody secret, and to be quite honest the secrecy of the aftermath is well over the top. It was all too fast, dead one minute buried at sea the next, rushed statements, and even now no one seems to tell the same story. It has left an element of doubt.
