What is there really to gain by releasing gruesome photos?

We know he escaped just prior to the Battle of Tora Bora
No we ABSOLUTELY do not know this for fact. There is no evidence he ever escaped Tora Bora.
The argument here is that our government is lying to us, time and time again. And this president is complicit in the lies and coverups. He used the Bin Laden event for political gain to advance his re-election effort.
I am tired of being treated like a child by our government. And, I am tired of people who are of lesser intelligence to be made fools of.
I see right through this administration's lies.
If the pictures existed, there would be no reason why they could not release them.
If the pictures existed, they would be fabricated.
Everything about this stinks from high heaven.

What was there to gain by releasing the photos of the Columbine kids after their suicides? What was there to gain by releasing the video of Kennedy having his cranium ventilated in Dallas? Or how about the morgue photos of Tamerlan Tsarnaev? What was there to gain by releasing the footage of Saddam being hanged? Many people were loyal to Saddam. Why didn't that cause an uprising?
Just seems very strange to me that they are okay with photos/video of all those incidents circulating freely, but the Bin Laden one is taboo.

Whether they actually killed him or he died of natural causes prior to this is really just semantics now.
Its obvious that Bin Laden no longer lives so do we really care?
How is it obvious?
We saw the grisly pictures of Saddam and Kadafi but no Bin Laden. Curious.
But if you chose to believe the msm and the government....fine. Even though they have played fast and lose with the truth as long as I can remember and anyone that gives them any credibility at all is a fool.
My bet is that Osama is living large in Turkey with most of his family. The CIA protects their own.

I'm always astonished at those that rag on and disbelieve the msm and gov. press releases until the information fits with their ideology.
Use your common sense!!! Look at the authorities history!!! Look for sources outside of the US!!!
Don't fall for obvious propaganda!!! Deny Ignoranceedit on 22-5-2013 by olaru12 because: (no reason given)

And if you saw the pictures you would say they were faked.
Perhaps not you but many deniers would.
I don't know for sure if they killed him or somebody else or nobody but I know that Bin Laden is no longer in the picture and that's from studying multiple sources.
Given the lack of reasoning for Obama to make this up I can only conclude that it did actually happen. Nothing is to be gained by releasing the photos so I wouldn't either.
If an administration starts trying to prove everything it does to every single person who wants proof they will not have time for anything else.

News of Bin Laden's Death and Funeral 10 days ago Islamabad - A prominent official in the Afghan Taliban movement announced yesterday the death of Osama bin Laden, the chief of Al-Qaeda organization, stating that bin Laden suffered serious complications in the lungs and died a natural and quiet death. The official, who asked to remain anonymous, stated to The Observer of Pakistan that he had himself attended the funeral of bin Laden and saw his face prior to burial in Tora Bora 10 days ago. He mentioned that 30 of Al-Qaeda fighters attended the burial as well as members of his family and some friends from the Taleban. In the farewell ceremony to his final rest guns were fired in the air. The official stated that it is difficult to pinpoint the burial location of bin Laden because according to the Wahhabi tradition no mark is left by the grave. He stressed that it is unlikely that the American forces would ever uncover any traces of bin Laden.
