Bruce Lawrence, the bin Laden specialist who says it's definitely not him? This is an expert--supposing you're an expert on someone and their face happens to be squeezed by an incorrect aspect ratio--would you be fooled? Whether or not this is true, there are many other problems with the whole idea that this video is in any way meaningful--it certainly doesn't exonerate Silverstein, disprove controlled demolition, or explain the missing planes in Pennsylvania and the Pentagon.

I find it interesting that the "Muckraker Report" had a hand both in promoting this story and now debunking it. Is the explanation now about the FBI not having any hard evidence linking bin Laden to the attacks also suspect? Was the FBI also fooled by the incorrect aspect ratio? Or was the FBI's evaluation of the video's significance (or lack thereof) based on something other than the identity of the person in the vid?

This is a perfect example of what utter bullshit the entire LIHOP faction of the movement is--this crap is distracting, pointless, and has nothing to do with who put explosives in the towers.
