FNC hasn’t reported on this at all. Neither has CNN or my local news.

The guy in the brown hijab and the black hat, with the white rag barely showing, is OBL's 'crown prince'. It was right there before me the whole time, I missed the covered white rag. The one in Iran performing the singing for the kid jihad exercises.

It literally looks like a group photo of all OBL's sons.

NEW ORLEANS - The Coast Guard is responding to a report of a barge explosion on the ship channel in Mobile Bay Wednesday.

That’s what I was wondering. Isn’t this a big enough deal to mention?

Obama has been pictured with a white rag before too. I am not sure what it signifies but some Freeper will know. Not sure it means he is a bin laden though. Scary implications if true.

There are a lot of incompetent people in the workforce these days. Most of them don’t speak or understand english.

For Saudi royalty, they wear the white head covering.

The two pictured next to him wear the red/white covering.

They are not allowed to wear the white.

Barama was pictured in a white headress, but, not a Saudi white head covering.

Yeah just like what they said last week that it was some kind of static from the lighting storm that came over Waco Texas...
