Now thats interesting , he is willing to testify in front a grand jury , lets see how quickly he is silenced by Obama or given a gag order as a matter of national security , then we will see that its obvious a lie.
At ats we are supposed to deny ignorance , so why the hell do we have members coming on here saying that Obama had him killed and has the evidence but wont release it, how ignorant can you get .
Ignore the facts , ignore the lack of evidence, but dont ignore the lies that the government spews and its propaganda that you choke on daily .
I find it unreal that there are members on this site of all sites , that still believe the "official " line.
If I were an american , I would be literally raging at my government right now .

ha i said to myself this would happen as soon as i heard the news, they arent releasing the pics because they havnt got any,
not only pics but apparantly if obama watched a live feed through his tv there should also be video footage of the event taking place (if he did i am pretty certain it will have been recorded), shouldnt be to hard to censor out the grusome bits?
never happened, theres gotta be a reason obama lied i can think of a few but there will probably be other motives
- gain more votes and populairty
- bury the fake birth certifacte thing? already people have forgotten

This disbeleif and conspiracy nonsense about Bin Laden is getting really irritating.
Why do so many clowns seem convinced they are lying?, there is DNA evidence there is video of the raid, there are multiple photos of the body.
Sorry but demanding to be shown understandably classified and highly disturbing images just because you think everything is a 'conspiracy' is mindbendingly stupid and ignorant. Why the hell would they invent something like this anyway?
It seems pretty obvious to me if the guy is not dead we'll know when he releases a video basically saying 'I am not dead' ! I dont see any such thing plastered all over the news yet, do you?
Bin Laden is dead folks. Accept it. Also the fridge light really DOES go out when you close the door.

If I'm being paid, then I'd love to see that paycheck! I love how whenever someone defends an "official story" of any kind, no matter how unhinged the "conspiracy story" might be, they are always pinned as "plants" or COINTELPRO or such. Amazing. I guess I should take it as a compliment that you think my opinion is worth more than others, huh?
There are multiple eye-witnesses to the live feed of the mission and multiple eye-witnesses to the photos afterwards and multiple eye-witnesses to the DNA results and multiple eye-witnesses to the actual helicopters inside that compound including some guy accidentally live-tweeting it. Suggesting that all these people are part of a cover-up to hide the fact Osama wasn't killed, or he was just thawed out, or whatever you *wish* reality to be is the very definition of "Conspiracy Theory".

My opinion is that releasing a corpse photo would do more harm than good. The Obama Administration is exactly right, it's an image that would be used to recruit people that want to do us harm, and in the end it would do very little to convince those that want to believe it's a conspiracy. Releasing a photo is a lose/lose. Not releasing a photo is a win/lose. No image for the extremists to rally around, but still conspiracy theorists having babies over it. Either way the CTers were going to latch onto this like vampires.
Time will tell. It always does.

Regarding the "multiple witnesses" to the live feed...Panetta confirmed that there was 25 minutes where the feed went blank. And according to the White house, None of the people in the conference roof actually saw Osama get shot. All these links are readily available on Drudge and countless other sources.

‘Wife was human shield’
The powerful image of bin Laden trying to cheat death by cowering behind his defenceless wife was painted by Obama’s counter-terrorism chief John Brennan.
He stated on Monday: ‘There was a female who was, in fact, in the line of fire. She was positioned in a way that she was being used as a human shield.
'She met her demise and my understanding is that she was one of bin Laden’s wives.’
An unnamed official later added the terror leader had been ‘firing behind’ his youngest wife, 27-year-old Amal Al Sadah.
On Tuesday, this version changed in two significant ways: firstly, the wife did not die, and secondly, he had not used her as a shield.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said: ‘In the room with bin Laden, a woman – bin Laden’s wife – rushed the U.S. assaulter and was shot in the leg but not killed.’
An even more extraordinary version was put out by the infamous National Enquirer magazine, which claimed that when commandos found bin Laden he was ‘high on heroin’ and ‘blubbering like a baby, crying and c***ing his pants before he was shot’.

‘He was shooting an AK47’
The Al Qaeda kingpin went down in a blaze of bullets as he blasted away on an AK47 rifle as the U.S. commandos closed in, according to the first version of events put out by the White House.
Bin Laden picked up a gun and was ‘engaged in a firefight’, said John Brennan on Monday.
Another official said the terror leader ‘participated’ in a gun battle and was ‘armed with an AK47’, while another said bin Laden had been ‘firing behind’ his wife.
In a separate background briefing, another source claimed: ‘He did resist the assault force. And he was killed in a firefight.’
A massive U-turn was performed on Tuesday, with White House spokesman Jay Carney stating: ‘Bin Laden was not armed.’
However Mr Carney insisted the terror mastermind ‘did resist’. Asked how he had resisted if he was not carrying his AK47, he said: ‘Resistance does not require a firearm’, but refused to elaborate.
