If my Photoshop was working I would put a comparison together but unfortunately it is not at the moment.
In response to Roboe, the point in the article I was referring to is the following:
The agency actually did make a video purporting to show Osama bin Laden and his cronies sitting around a campfire swigging bottles of liquor and savoring their conquests with boys, one of the former CIA officers recalled, chuckling at the memory. The actors were drawn from “some of us darker-skinned employees,” he said.
Based on that, is it so impossible to believe that the CIA possibly faked OTHER Bin Laden tapes? Oh of course not. I forgot I'm just some stupid "truther". How dare I seek truth.
The "conspiracy" if you will, is that the real Bin Laden died December of 2001 and everything since then has been fake. Fake to keep us in these bogus "wars of terror".
And questioning the realism of the Bin Laden photos has nothing to do with being a "truther". Thank you, come again.

His beard being a different color would make it HARDER for the CIA to say it was him, so it's obviously something Osama did by himself.....Jesus.

That makes no sense, because they just killed him a month or two ago and they are still pushing the war
And every released photo or video of Osama clearly showed it was him, and thinking otherwise is ludicrous.

And thus my point is proven
But to answer the OP: Because if they accept the confession tape, they have to accept that "they" (insert your applicable imaginary "the powers that be") didn't do it.

You haven't debunked anything. I commend you for taking the time to make your original image on your first post. It shows you want to take the time to debate this. But since then you've done nothing but tell people to grow up, that we're silly and crazy for believing anything opposed to the MSM view. You haven't included any proof whatsoever to show that the pictures or video are in fact Bin Laden. I have included links, photos, quotes, etc to show you why I believe what I believe. I will not state it as fact or truth. Because I can't prove my belief is 100% truth. I just know from what I have seen, read, listened to and researched, my belief is that it is not him. He died in 2001.

Is the famous “confession video” genuine? Despite Bush’s insistence that the tape is authentic, America’s top academic Bin Laden expert has finally gone on the record, joining numerous other experts. “It’s bogus,” says Professor Bruce Lawrence, head of Duke University’s Religious Studies program.

Professor Bruce Lawrence thinks otherwise. but why should we listen to THE TOP EXPERT ON BIN LADEN?

Yup, and so does everyone else in the real world (not the internet). Apply for a job and tell them you believe what you believe, you would get laughed at haha

You are obviously here because you are curious right? Do you care whether people think you are crazy or not? If so, then always go with the popular beliefs, that's always the safe way. But let me ask you this, does it make it true if everyone believes in something that's false? You know at one point, most people believed that the Earth was flat...
You don't have to accept everything but just have an open-mind and you might find things that are interesting.
