FAKE BIN LADEN DEATH PHOTO GOING AROUND, WILL WHITE HOUSE RELEASE REAL DEATH PHOTOS???

A photo reportedly showing a dead Osama bin Laden is already making its way around the Internet ... but it seems pretty obvious ... the photo is a FAKE.

The White House is reportedly locked in a debate on whether or not to release the REAL Osama bin Laden death photos ... photos in which you can reportedly see his brain.

According to ABC News, the photos are pretty damn gruesome -- with one report stating, "[Osama] has a massive head wound above his left eye where he took bullet, with brains and blood visible."

One U.S. official who has seen the photos tells ABC, "There's no doubt it's him."
