Legit...No. Is my first feeling.

Questions: Not grey hairs? Why only face? How do you get this to the internet so fast? Was this a photo from last week? People who would shoot Osama would likely not have time to do this on the ground but a photo at an autopsy would. This wasn't taken on an autopsy table.


But.......

photo is definitely a shop. Beard/lower half of the face is a lower resolution than the top of the head.

CNN reports the mansion he was in was built 5-6 years ago, suggesting it was built for Osama.

It's been a pretty good week for Obama. Do you think releasing the birth certificate, humiliating Trump and the killing of Bin Laden were intentionally executed this close together?

Anyone that watched the Olympic opening ceremony, remembers parts of it, but haven't read this thread, must do it now. That was the greatest thread ever. Great from start to finish, especially the end.

lol the one reporter on Global Toronto was hilarious. Kept saying Obama was dead. It wasn't just once. She said it at least 3 times.

As a Pakistani, I am very excited about this news. In ten year, this son of b***h is responsible of thousands of lives.

Some info i got from Pakistani news channels:
-He was living in a 1 million dollars house in city of Abbotabad.
- There was no tv/phone/internet connection in the house. Thats was the first suspecious thing Pak intellegence caught.
- In past 5-6 years, city of Abbotabad was one of few cities with no suicide bomb attacks.
- Abbotabad is only 120km from Islamabad, capital of Pakistan. http://maps.google.ca/maps?q=abbotabad%20pakistan&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-GBfficial&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wl
- http://geo.tv/ is leading news channel in Pakistan. check it out for more updates.

Interesting that Bin Laden was found in a large city when it had been reported forever that he was in the moutians.

Hiding in plain sight.

Finally found Obama's speech.

Great speech and I have far more confidence in his leadership. His depiction of Bin Laden is spot on. He is NOT a leader Muslims but a murderer of thousands of Muslims. He paid homage to the past and showed that he is lifting and carrying the burden on.

A REALLY good DAY!

There has been so much speculation about this guy. Many experts thought Bin Laden had died already. He was supposedly in bad health, and was suffering from kidney disease.

I wonder if Obama will get rid of the Patriot Act and the TSA after this.

They got Osama Bin Laden, ...but probably created thousands of new angry jihadists after slaughtering hundreds of thousands of civilians in Iraq/Afghanistan/Pakistan.
