A US Senate Armed Services Committee representative viewed the death photos of Osama bin Laden on Wednesday and said the pictures - some gruesome - leave no doubt the al-Qaida leader is dead.
"Absolutely no question about it. A lot of people out there say 'I want to see the pictures' but I've already seen them. That was him. He's gone. He's history," James Inhofe, an Oklahoma Republican, said on CNN.
Inhofe said he saw 15 photographs, nine taken at the scene of the May 2 raid on a compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan; three from the U.S.S. Vinson, where bin Laden's body was prepared for burial at sea; and three older photographs to compare for positive identification.
"They're gruesome, of course, because it was taken right after the incident," Inhofe said in another interview.
