    Bin Laden Confession Video Debunked?

    We admit our mistakes, and correct them, that's why we're a Truth Movement!

    Many in the global movement to discover the truth about 9/11 have referred to this video as the fat bin Laden video, including yours truly. When we see frames from the video such as in Figure 1, any person with eyes can look and see that the bin Laden in the video appears much fatter than any other known image of Osama.

    Figure 1

    Center frame depicts an image of a person that is recognizably fatter than other bin Laden photos

    However, when one or even a few frames are taken from a 35-minute segment of video, and those selected frames exploit the least recognizable images of bin Laden while hundreds of other frames resemble him more closely, it is a misrepresentation of the truth. Clearly, the center frame above is one of those frames in the video that least resembles Osama bin Laden - yet has been picked and published as if the entire video reveals bin Laden in this distorted image, when it does not.

    For example, the image below (Figure 2) is from the same video and clearly resembles Osama bin Laden more than the center frame referenced in Figure 1.

    Basically, the reason why Osama bin Laden looks fat in the video, and in some frames particularly fat, is because of the camera angle, shadowing and lighting, and the fact that the PAL to NTSC conversion squashed the vertical by 17 percent while the horizontal proportion remained the same as the original.

    Tremblay has provided approximately 25 corrected frames to the Muckraker Report that demonstrate clearly that this PAL / NTSC conversion created the “fat” Osama bin Laden. The following conversion then corrected aspect images came from the frame 50 minutes 45 seconds into the C-SPAN video that Maher Osseiran provided.

    Well, I have to admit, it does seem to be Osama bin Laden after all. Nice find.

    However, we should still be sceptical of both arguments and the entire video should, ideally, be analysed.

    i haven't read all of this, but the confession video may still offer evidence of government deception and complicity...

    but it's just not as simple as "look, it's not bin laden!"
