| Faces of terror and terrible faces Now, with the threat of terrorism hanging over us like a malevolent bus shelter, the free world needs to believe more than ever in the intelligence of our security services. We need to believe it with the same fervour as R Kelly believed he had the power of flight.
Here he is with a beard and a traditional Arab head-dress. And again still with the beard, but with a jacket and tie.
And when they caught him, what did he have?
Ooh, so close! You haven't really grasped the concept of facial hair, have you, boys? What about sideburns? He could've looked like the bloke out of Supergrass, for God's sake. Anyway, the FBI have a Top Ten Most Wanted list - although they don't mention whether they take commercial airplay into account. Now top of their list is obviously this chap.
But we think we may be onto why it is taking them so long to track him down. They've called him Usama Bin Laden. Yup, after years of just giving him weapons, they've finally put the"USA" into "Usama". It's the most fundamental error they could make - they've spelt his name wrong - no wonder they haven't been able to find him on 192.com.
Next on the list is this guy - James J Bulger. A man responsible for more criminal acts than Simon Cowell.
He's been on the run now for several years now, and so the FBI have used their colossal resources to produce a more updated image of what he might look like now.
See, in your head, you're imagining high-tech spy satellites and Clarice Starling chasing bad guys... But in your heart, you know it's just one guy at a PC with a really old version of PhotoShop.
His name's Robert William Fisher, and he's wanted for murder, arson and unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
In fact, the FBI PhotoShop guy has really gone to town on Robert William Fisher.
Now, the FBI warns that he's "considered armed and extremely dangerous". So please, please if you do see him, don't even think about approaching him.
The FBI - proving that you can run, but you can't hide. Unless it's behind a pair of glasses and comedy beard. To check it out for yourself, The BBC is not responsible for content on external websites. |
