Do you want to see photos of Bin Laden's body?

BBC Asian Network - Nihal, Do you want to see photos of Bin Laden's body?

Should the United States release photographs of Osama Bin Laden's body?

Should the United States release photographs of Osama Bin Laden's body? Plus hear from the author of Pakistan - A Hard Country. And do men and housework really go together?

At 1- Should the United States release photographs of Osama Bin Laden's body?

Those in favour say it will provide proof that he died, those against are worried that the gruesome nature of the pictures may do more harm than good. They could provide impetus for those seeking revenge and upset those who see them, especially children. 

There's been more details coming out which have rewritten the original reported version of events. Bin Laden wasn't armed, he didn't hide behind his wife and she didn't die in a firefight. Does that make you doubt even more whether Bin Laden was actually killed in events? 

Would seeing the photos of bloodied, shot up corpse change your views? 

After 2- We'll be speaking to Anatol Leiven who is Professor of International Relations and Terrorism Studies at Kings College London about his new book on Pakistan. And- Do you if you worry about asking your husband or son to help around the house?
