Unfortunately evil conspiracy at every turn is going to be the norm from here on out in the post 9/11 world. Parading his dead picture around would for sure just anger more people, so there is no need. If OBL is in fact alive he should show up holding today's newspaper any day now in a new video showing how incompetent the USA really is. Also what good does it do to fake his death? We certainly aren't winning over there and everyone knows it, as Obama just committed to extending our stay in Afghanistan. Faking OBL's death makes no sense if he can just show up on YouTube the next month alive and discredit everything the government told us.

The U.S. started an illegitimate war that has killed hundreds of thousands of civilians by some accounts. We are executing drone-strikes that are killing more civilians and "enemies". We tortured, engaged in rendition, suspended detainee rights, and more. We continue to hunt and kill Al Qaeda affiliates, as well as create "collateral damage". How much angrier can we make people? And, we have done this, presumably, because of OBL. After killing him, we can tell detailed stories about how the raid was performed, describe where he was shot, etc., but we just can't actually show evidence? Sorry. Makes no sense. As to why he doesn't show up, some believe he was already dead, which is plausible. Bhutto said as much years ago, before her passing. If he had actually died much earlier, then the charade would have to end at some point, right? There would need to be closure.
