Pros and Cons of Releasing Dead OBL Pictures According to 8-1 Smarties

Pros:

• proof that he is really dead
• people won't get angry at Obama like they did with the birth certificate thing
• will overtake the royal wedding in the media - score!
• American citizens will feel the government is being open, honest, sharing information, etc.

Cons:

• people might find it too gory and offensive
• it will make Al Qaeda more angry at us; bring shame to them
• might motivate someone to retaliate against the US
• people might not think that the picture is real (PhotoShop?!)
• even people who didn't support Al Qaeda might turn against us
• Al Qaeda might use it to recruit uneducated Muslims - "look what they did!" - it could be used as propaganda against the US
