Astonishing GeoEye imagery of bin Laden compound after the raid.
GeoEye took a clear 1m resolution image of Abbottabad the day after the raid, with a nice clear image, coincidentally, taken of the bin Laden compound

OBL Photos:
With a GeoEye you can have an illusion objectivity without the Subjective itch: OBL-Death photos.
Not to show OBL-Death photos could have been a competent and practical decision. However, such an honest decision could only have been made before OBL was killed. Any decision afterwards is caused by indecision...weakness and politics. Muslims can quickly smell both.
The mingling of Objective and Subjective analyses can only achieve a politically expedient end for weakness...not strength. The mingling of the observed Muslim rage with their so-called righteous sensitivity can only achieve a political joke: a weak victor. When the analysis becomes a joke, truncating empirical data (photos) can only be seen as truncating the truth.
