Not surprising, President Obama decided he will NOT release the ultra-gory photos of Osama bin Laden‘s bloody, bullet-ridden face to the public.

The news comes in the wake of reports that Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Hillary Clinton had advised Obama about concerns that releasing a photograph could prompt a backlash against the U.S.

Obama told “60 Minutes” … “The risks of release outweigh the benefits” … adding, “Conspiracy theorists around the world will just claim the photos are doctored anyway, and there is a real risk that releasing the photos will only serve to inflame public opinion in the Middle East.”

Obama continued, “Imagine how the American people would react if al-Qaida killed one of our troops or military leaders, and put photos of the body on the internet.”

“Osama bin Laden is not a trophy — he is dead and let’s now focus on continuing the fight until al Qaeda has been eliminated.”

I however do agree, most will say they are doctored anyways. Despite curiosity, I opt out of seeing any hamburger faces.
