I DON'T WANT TO BE A BIN LADEN PORN TRUTHER, BUT...

Well, I certainly want to believe this story, but is it legit? I'll explain my doubts below:

A stash of pornography was found in the hideout of Osama bin Laden by the U.S. commandos who killed him, current and former U.S. officials said on Friday.

The pornography recovered in bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, consists of modern, electronically recorded video and is fairly extensive, according to the officials, who discussed the discovery with Reuters on condition of anonymity....

I have doubts because a year ago The Washington Post's Spy Talk blog reported that the CIA had tried to concoct fake sexytime videos involving bin Laden and Saddam Hussein (no, not together):

During planning for the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the CIA's Iraq Operations Group kicked around a number of ideas for discrediting Saddam Hussein in the eyes of his people.

One was to create a video purporting to show the Iraqi dictator having sex with a teenage boy, according to two former CIA officials familiar with the project.

"It would look like it was taken by a hidden camera," said one of the former officials. "Very grainy, like it was a secret videotaping of a sex session."

The idea was to then "flood Iraq with the videos," the former official said....

The agency actually did make a video purporting to show Osama bin Laden and his cronies sitting around a campfire swigging bottles of liquor and savoring their conquests with boys, one of the former CIA officers recalled, chuckling at the memory. The actors were drawn from "some of us darker-skinned employees," he said....

The Post report said that such efforts were abandoned fairly quickly, when cooler heads prevailed. But is this news leak in any way related? Are the people behind that video campaign involved in spreading this story? Or is the story legit? I really don't know -- I'm just asking....
