A gallery of fake osama bin laden
US Senator Scott Brown confirmed that this was the image he was shown as part of an official US government briefing to the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Brown admits he was fooled by fake pictures of bin Laden body - Political Intelligence - A national political and campaign blog from The Boston Globe - Boston.com
Brown, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, suggested he had viewed them as part of an official briefing, and he argued that they were too graphic to be released to the public and could enflame terrorists.
Oops.
Brown later acknowledged that he had fallen victim to a hoax, apparently the same doctored images that were making the rounds on the Internet.
The mouth and beard from a photo of the real Bin Laden in the mid 80s was photoshopped onto the head of another dead man.
"If at first you don't succeed, lie, lie again!" -- Motto of the White House
Another photo that was leaked onto the net following the collapse of the first fake. The White House strategy appears to have been to "test" the fakes with leaks, then go with the first image that appeared to fool everyone. This one did not.
Ignoring the bullet hole this guy looks very healthy for ten years of dialysis. The nose is also too narrow. But the main reason to disregard this as another likely fake is simple. This image is tainted green to make it look like a night vision image, yet the soldier at right is looking off left, apparently able to see just fine without night vision goggles. And finally, there is something missing from this image that should be there (besides night vision goggles).
There is an illumination source to the upper right of the camera taking this image. You can see the resulting shadows on the jaw line and cheek of the soldier. More to the point, there is clearly a shadow from the soldier's face extending left from his face and falling on the floor and the side of "Osama's" face. Yet there is no trace of a similar shadow from the face of "Osama" above the beard near the right eye. And didn't the White House say "Osama" was shot above the LEFT eye?
Source image for the second fake is found; a clip from the movie "Blackhawk Down.
And merged with another fake bin laden.

The people who want to send your children off to die in wars on Israel's enemies are nothing if not persistent. After the above Blackhawk Down failed, they tried once more.
The real osama died of natural causes in 2001
Even Fox News reported Bin Laden was dead in 2001 ... until it was decided that a live Bin Laden was more useful to the war hawks than a dead one!

In 2007, shortly before her own assassination, Benazir Bhutton confirmed that Osama Bin Laden was dead.
