Politics.
It helps get Obama re-elected, but don't worry, he will remind you a lot when his full-blown re-election campaign starts.

"Why now?"

We all know that no matter what quality the pictures are, there will be skeptics on their authenticity.
I will be one of these skeptics.
Photos can very easily be manipulated and the whole story stinks like a tuna boat. I find this announcement convenient since recent stories about the Dr. who snitched on his" whereabouts" fearing for his life have been circulating. I believe this is one of the many red herrings that TPTB have thrown our way to confuse into thinking the story had any validity.
PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN!
(and they better be good!)

And weren't we also told that the raid was videotaped by some sort of helmet cam? Release that too, then I'll believe the official OBL assassination story.
The CIA was involved in Afghanistan during the Soviet conflict there. I think the CIA funded and equipped the Taliban back then. That's where the Bin Laden fable was created.

CIA Claims Publication of Bin Laden Death Photos Would ‘Trigger Violence’
The Central Intelligence Agency says releasing images of a dead Osama bin Laden “could trigger violence, attacks, or acts of revenge against the United States.” Disclosing such images, including one showing the bullet wound to bin Laden’s head, the government said, “plausibly and logically pose a particularly grave threat of inflaming anti-American sentiment and resulting in retaliatory harm.” (.pdf)
It never stops them from releasing other people with their brains dripping out their skulls, we all know damn well they don't care about Muslim sentiment. If anything, they would want more "attacks" to heighten security, up the defense budget, and take away more of our freedoms.
It's a win-win situation.
