In an exclusive interview with Colorado Congressman Doug Lamborn on the death photos of Osama Bin Laden Truth Alliance has learned that one of the photos could very well have been taken from a head mounted camera while standing over the body.
A surprising revelation considering the Obama administration first claimed that the head camera footage is how they watched live from their situation room, then later CIA director Leon Panetta mentioned that, no they didn't see the live footage because the video link cut out frustrating the narrative and fueling more conspiracies surrounding his death.
Congress Lamborn had this to say about the angle of the camera that captured the body of Osama Bin Laden when asked about the camera angles and whether SEAL Team 6 made a cameo in any of them,
"There was no faces of any Americans, the only traces of Americans, obvious traces were a boot of a solider who was probably looking down, and I don't know if it was a helmet mounted camera or a hand held camera looking down while he was laying in the blood in his bedroom, but you could see the boot of a solider."
Now just confirming this hypothesis is CBS News reporting, that yes indeed that every minute of the raid was captured by head mounted cameras by the Navy SEAL Team 6.
"CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports the 40 minutes it took to kill bin Laden and scoop his archives into garbage bags were all recorded by tiny helmet cameras worn by each of the 25 SEALs.
Officials reviewing those videos are still reconstructing a more accurate version of what happened. We now know that the only firefight took place in the guest house, where one of Bin Laden's couriers opened fire and was quickly gunned down. No one in the main building got off a shot or was even armed, although there were weapons nearby."
Another important detail that was not mentioned by the Congressman on any of the main stream interviews is that the photos had internal forensic markings and side by side shots of known live pictures of Osama Bin Laden. These new photos that have been made exclusively available to members of the House and Senate Armed Services Committee and House and Senate Intelligence Committee have been gone over internally by the C.I.A. Apparently they marked out distinctions like ear shape and position, nose contours, brow lines, etc that would indicate whether this was truly a photograph of the man who has eluded authorities for ten years.
When asked about the body and wounds caused by the brief gun fight that went down inside the complex, and whether or not the left eye was hit as reported in previous weeks, Rep. Lamborn mentioned that the photos show the top part of Osama Bin Laden's head was quit literally blown off leaving a clear picture of the facial features for identification.
"You could see the face, but the top part of his head was missing, and you could see some of the internal organs and blood from the gun shot wound"
There were a total of about 6-8 photos, that were made available upon his early arrival at Langley AFB and headquarters of the C.I.A. Many pictures showed the gory scene and what he thought looked like the facility we have all been shown pictures of recently. There was also photographs of Osama Bin Laden being wrapped for burial, but no indication that it was being performed at sea.
The question came up whether or not these were totally 100% new photos or did any of them resemble some of the fake death photos that have been circulating on the internet lately, which he indicated they where nothing like the fake photos which he too has seen being passed off as real. These photos were hi-res, full color, full frame photos.
When questioned about whether or not the American people should be given a chance to view the real pictures and what the arguments against disclosure were he stated,
"I think the American people deserve disclosure that is my bias...there are two arguments, the under-lings over there at the White House are saying that this could incite people. I am concerned about that, but I am not sure that is a real big argument, because if they wanted to get incited they have all kinds of things to make them incited, the fact is we killed him has already incited some of them to vow retaliation. The 2nd argument is being made by the President himself it is like spiking a football and we are not like that, he doesn't really give a reason but that is what his words were"
The fact is no matter what the argument is, without photographic, video and DNA proof there will always be a certain amount of skepticism surrounding the death of Osama Bin Laden from the public at large. Videos of eye witness reports continue to surface from people living right next door that continue to color this debate casting doubt on whether or not this was truly the 6 year home to the worlds most famous fugitive Osama Bin Laden.
Adding another dimension to the official narrative is the fact that high ranking public officials have been saying for years that the leader of al-Qaeda and mastermind of 9/11 has been dead for a decade as reported on by Jon Elinoff who linked up all the main stream news reports of his death.
On December 26, 2001, Fox News reported on a Pakistan Observer story that the Afghan Taliban had officially pronounced Osama Bin Laden dead earlier that month. According to the report, he was buried less than 24 hours later in an unmarked grave in accordance with Wahabbist Sunni practices.
What followed was a string of pronouncements from officials affirming what was already obvious: supposedly living in caves and bunkers in the mountainous pass between Afghanistan and Pakistan, Osama would have been deprived of the dialysis equipment that he required to live.
On January 18, 2002, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf announced quite bluntly: “I think now, frankly, he is dead.”
On July 17, 2002, the then-head of counter-terrorism at the FBI, Dale Watson, told a conference of law enforcement officials that “I personally think he [Bin Laden] is probably not with us anymore,” before carefully adding that “I have no evidence to support that.”
In October 2002, Afghan President Hamid Karzai told CNN that “I would come to believe that [Bin Laden] probably is dead.”
In November 2005, Senator Harry Reid revealed that he was told Osama may have died in the Pakistani earthquake of October that year.
In September 2006, French intelligence leaked a report suggesting Osama had died in Pakistan.
On November 2, 2007, former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto told Al-Jazeera’s David Frost that Omar Sheikh had killed Osama Bin Laden.
In March 2009, former US foreign intelligence officer and professor of international relations at Boston University Angelo Codevilla stated: “All the evidence suggests Elvis Presley is more alive today than Osama Bin Laden.”
In May 2009, Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari confirmed that his “counterparts in the American intelligence agencies” hadn’t heard anything from Bin Laden in seven years and confirmed “I don’t think he’s alive.”
It is common knowledge that Osama Bin Laden had been diagnosed with Marfan syndrome a degenerative genetic disease for which there is no cure and vastly decreases the lifespan of people who suffer from it. In fact Iran, on May 9th said they actually have evidence that shows Osama Bin Laden had already died many years ago from this disease. Iranian intelligence minister Heidar Moslehi contrasted the capture of Bin Laden with that of their capture of the head of the terrorist organization Jundallah.
“If the US military and intelligence apparatus have really arrested or killed bin Laden, why don't they show him (his dead body) why have they thrown his corpse into the sea?” Moslehi asked.
“When we apprehended [former Jundallah ringleader Abdul Malik] Rigi, we showed him and also aired his interview,”
This information has also been confirmed by the former operative and insider who literally wrote the book on how to recruit, train and use the Mujaheddin freedom fighters led by Osama Bin Laden back in the 1970's to fight the Soviet Union during the Afghan Russian conflict, Dr. Steve Pieczenik. His thoughts on the matter are made very clear in the below interview with radio host Alex Jones, that Osama Bin Laden has been dead for a decade and that 9/11 was a stand down operation by the Bush Administration to justify multiple wars across the middle east.
PART 2 | PART 3
We need images, video, and DNA if we are ever to put this to rest. Unfortunately that just doesn't seem possible with all of the hype and politics. The death of Osama Bin Laden is sadly being used to justify the NSA spying, torture and evasive TSA pat downs now sanctioned by the U.S. government due to the legal gymnastics of Bush era lawyers instead of ending it and bringing our troops home.
In conclusion let's all pray that this cash of "intelligence" that was harvested by SEAL Team 6 during the raid won't be used to whip the media into another frenzy and we find ourselves embroiled in another war with the nuclear powerhouse Pakistan.
We can only hope the diary of Bin Laden and his computer lab was much like Hitler in his last hours, commanding armies that didn't exist.
