An elite crews of American forces killed bin Laden during a daring raid on Monday. Bin Laden was shot in the head during a firefight and then quickly buried at sea.
White House officials were mulling the merits and appropriateness of releasing a photo.<snip>
Senior administration officials said the
DNA testing alone offered near 100 percent certainty that bin Laden was in fact shot dead. Detailed photo analysis by the CIA, confirmation by a woman believed to be bin Laden's wife on site, and matching physical features like bin Laden's height all helped confirmed the identification.http://tinyurl.com/obamakilledosama It's typical of President Obama's cultural and sociopolitical sensitivity that he doesn't want to offend the Middle East by immediately plastering the CIA's "detailed photo analysis" all over the front pages of newspapers across the world in order to satisfy the crazy deathers who now doubt Osama's death in the same way nutcase birthers doubt Obama's birthplace. I'm glad that I have a President who's not interested in gloating or inflaming Middle East sensibilities by releasing gruesome and distasteful photos of a dead, brain-splattered Osama like President Bush did right after Saddam's sons were killed by US troops.
