UPDATE: President Obama and the White House have reversed course and are now stating that they won’t be releasing Bin Laden’s death photos for fear it will incite hatred and retaliation from al-Qaeda or other terrorist organizations. The move could be a cover by the White House of plausible deniability when and if they leak the photos through a third source to the public.

UPDATE 2: Reuters has purchased and released Bin Laden death scene photos that show bloody deaths.

The White House and President Barack Obama have decided to release at least one photo showing that former master terrorist Osama Bin Laden is in fact dead.

The release of the ‘death photo’ will likely be extremely controversial.  There will be Islamic extremists who will take the release as extremely offensive and possibly use it to recruit to al-Qaeda.

Political extremists here in the United States will probably try to use the President’s decision to release the photo as ammunition to attack the President or ‘War on Terror.’

The Drudge Report was the first to break the news that the White House was in fact going to release the image to the press.

Obama likely is releasing the photo to squash rumors that Bin Laden is still alive or that they killed the wrong man.

The photo shows a bullet wound to the skull, above his left eye.

Osama (Usama) bin Laden had been the FBI’s #1 Most Wanted Man for several years since September 11, 2001.

The photo will be one of the most viewed photos in human history.  It likely will become the #1 best selling urinal cake as well!

Video of Bin Laden’s burial at sea might also be released according to ABC News.
