Osama Bin Laden

On Tuesday night, Al Qaeda's media unit released a video of a sermon by Abu Yahya al-Libi, the terrorist group's star proselytizer. As Wired's Danger Room reports, near the end of the video the camera "blurs and closes in on the assembled crowd hugging and congratulating al-Libi."

Some in the Italian media are suggesting that one of the fuzzy figures is the most wanted man on Earth: Osama Bin Laden.

"In the years since 9/11, the once media-friendly Bin Laden has become increasingly camera shy - a phenomenon which many believe owes much to concerns over his personal security," writes Danger Room's Adam Rawnsley.

The screen grabs that were taken from the video are frustratingly blurry, but the figure does bear at least a passing resemblance to Bin Laden. See below, and decide for yourself.



Quick Poll

Do you think these pictures are of Osama Bin Laden?

Yes, definitely!

No, just some other guy with a beard.

Don't know, ask the CIA.
