Images of Osama bin Laden killing not to be released, judge orders

A US federal court has backed the Obama administration in refusing to release pictures or video from military operation

A federal judge has refused to order Barack Obama's administration to release pictures and video of the US military operation that killed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden in Pakistan almost a year ago.

The government watchdog group, Judicial Watch, had requested that the defence department and Central Intelligence Agency release any pictures or video footage of the operation on 1 May 2011 that killed Bin Laden in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

The man is probably right now sitting on the beach drinking Margaritas with Elvis on Hawaii.

The judge says:

"A picture may be worth a thousand words." "Yet, in this case, verbal descriptions of the death and burial of Osama bin Laden will have to suffice, for this court will not order the release of anything more."

What arrogance! Who pays for these military operations?  Oh well, I guess we'll just have to take their word for it, :-).

they did this because the last thing Barry needs is another photo shopped forgery making the rounds. Somebody whip out the docs where the repubs wanted to wheel out OBL in 04 for The Incompetent One's fraud election boost.

Anybody pissed yet??

Yep, haven't they been called down enough for all their obvious forgeries? But how does the judge know this and don't these judges ever rule on the side of transparency?
