Hours ago, the Obama Administration decided not to release graphic photographs of dead terrorist and al Qaeda mastermind Osama bin Laden. The terrorist was killed in a Pakistani suburb this week in a raid conducted by U.S. Navy Seals on May 1st.
The Administration must take caution, fearing that such a release will cause ‘angry Muslim terrorists’ to launch fresh attacks against America and it’s citizens wherever we tread.
The snuff-out of Bin Laden sealed the deal, in the minds of Birther’s, Republicans and some citizens of the Bible Belt, about whether or not Barry O is ‘one of us.’ Bin Laden’s death is a virtual slam dunk victory over alleged Presidential hopeful and Birther Donald Trump in Birth Certificate-Gate, that saga of racism disguised as a fact-finding mission and those skeptical about our President’s allegiances.
With the details of the kill in Pakistan changing daily, kernels of doubt have already been planted via the media and White House reluctance to own up and show its hand. We say release the pictures. Why? Because Obama is damned if he does and damned if he don’t.
It’s our belief that these individuals will act, or attempt to act, violently against America whether or not the symbol of al Qaeda is alive or dead. One monkey, as the saying goes, don’t stop no show. America has enemies all over the world. We have them in Egypt, Yemen, The UK, Pakistan, India, Somalia and New Jersey, to name a few. And if we know anything about splinter organizations and terrorist cells, we must know that a severed head does not stop a body from moving.
Yes, Osama bin Laden may have started al Qaeda and the shock of his death have stunned his followers, but there are splinter cells of the organizations holed up all over the world, some of them may even be found on the hard drives and computers seized in Bin Laden’s compound. If O’s administration says f-it and shows its proof, nothing will happen that wouldn’t have occurred anyway, so why live on pre-suppositions or with fear that something could? In fact, the only reaction would be from O’s detractors: they might shut the f*ck up.
