Osama bin Laden is the infamous founder of the military organization Al Qaeda who were responsible for the Twin Tower terrorist attacks. Before bin Laden went to hide in Pakistan, which was his final location before he was found and executed, he was hiding away in Afghanistan. Photos of him have been revealed during the times he went to hideout after the 9/11 attacks. The photos feature bin Laden in his military clothes, at times holding a weapon. The photos show him in different locations including the outdoors, inside his home, and in front of the books that he used as the background to record videos and send messages that needed to be delivered. Other photos show the outside of his house and the roads to get there from a town I'm Afghanistan called Jalalabad. Supporters of bin Laden are also pictured and displayed. The graphics show a great depiction of how life was for Osama while be was hiding out.
Although the government claims that they have executed Osama bin Laden, many believe that this statement is just a hoax. The government has lied about other matters and has held many secrets from its citizens. After years of searching for bin Laden, it would look bad for America to not be able to find a man. America could have simply released a lie that Osama had been executed so that the citizens would relax. No proof has been given of Osama's death. His body has not been seen. The people are not guaranteed anything because what the government tells us might be a lie.
