Newscast Media WASHINGTON, D.C--The recent announcement of OBL's alleged death has raised many questions as to the timing of the announcement and when exactly Bin Laden died. Many skeptics have argued that OBL was killed sometime in the early to mid 2000s, and are taking this news with a grain of salt. Another school of thought believes a team of US Navy SEALs captured and shot OBL who was buried at sea. This article will attempt to analyze the factors leading to the alleged death of OBL and what has transpired thereafter.
The hesitation of the government to release a photo has sparked debate and created more doubt as to whether any photo that may be released will be genuine. The Obama administration claims they are being sensitive toward the Muslim community that's why they have withheld the photos. OBL was captured alive, but they still won't release a photo of his capture and what he looked like. The alleged burial at sea was explained with the excuse that no country would have been willing to accept his body, and Islamic tradition required a burial with a 24-hour period time span.
Saddam Hussein:
When Saddam Hussein was captured on December 13,2003 in a rat-hole, the photos of his capture were immediately released, and Saddam Hussein was a practicing Muslim. There was no talk of being culturally sensitive, and they even aired his death by hanging. If Saddam Hussein's photos of his capture, and the raw video of his death were good enough to be aired, yet he was a Muslim, why can't the same be applied to OBL?

In the interview above by Benazir Bhutto, she claims that OBL was killed by former British Intelligence officer Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh. Omar Sheikh had connections that reached high into Pakistan's military and intelligence elite and into the innermost circles of Osama Bin Laden. In July 2002 Omar was sentenced to death for the kidnapping and murder of Wall Street journalist Daniel Pearl. Omar Sheikh filed an appeal that hasn't been heard.
Media outlets across the globe are waiting for the photos. Some are suggesting that this is opportunism on behalf of the Obama administration because Obama's approval ratings were at an all time low. Others think, he may release a photo or two, and since this is an election cycle, he might wait until sometime next year to release more photos or even video if at all they exist. One thing is for certain, this is a political Chess game, where every move is calculated to produce maximum results. The question is, who are the pawns? Add Comments>>
