Hustler announces bin Laden parody, just as we predictedKeep it classy Osama porn parody.

Twelve days ago, Reuters reported that a “fairly substantial” pornography stash was found in the compound of Osama bin Laden. Which, let’s be clear, is pretty funny. This is the real-life equivalent of “Osama bin Laden has Farty Pants.” During a time when we don’t really know how to feel about the raucous “USA! USA!” chanting over a man’s death, it has been confirmed by basically everyone that:

a) Pornography is funny

b) The irony of Osama, a militant Sunnite, owning a giant collection of Jugs is funny

c) The irresistible jump in our heads from “Osama bin Laden likes porn” to the idea of Osama bin Laden starring in a porn  is funny

In fact, when Salon writer Tracy Clark-Flory first reported on the “modern, electronically recorded” sex movies that officials uncovered (what else was he doing without Internet?), she predicted that it wouldn’t be too long till Larry Flynt’s company took advantage of the news peg, “Cue multimillion-dollar offer for the videos from Vivid’s Steven Hirsch. Oh, and prepare for the Hustler parody.”

Well, either Larry is reading Salon or Tracy is a porn-psychic, because Hustler announced plans for a triple X parody based around the raid of Osama’s compound, called “This Ain’t Bin Laden XXX.“

Despite defending the hilarity of bin Laden and pornography a couple of paragraphs above, I really can’t think of anything less funny/sexy than a parody based around the Navy SEAL operation in Pakistan. Although it would explain Hillary’s expression in the infamous White House photo.

  • The protests take on a festive element as police forces move out of the park and square. Wearing a gas mask, this young man dances to traditional Turkish music in front of Taksim Square’s Ataturk Monument.

  • In Gezi Park since March 31st, this protester, originally caught off-guard by the Government’s teargas and water cannons, went out and bought a Russian army mask from WWII, preparing for what was to come.

  • This rambunctious boy seems to be enjoying the chaos. After taking this picture he threw a stone at the already destroyed building in the background.

  • Forming a line, the police face off directly with protesters in Taksim Square. After a while, they retreated and there was a general cheer – a back-and-forth dance that has been common since the beginning of this protest.

  • An elderly woman in Gezi Park reads the news. The tent community occupying the park was violently destroyed on June 16th.

  • Many different groups had set up booths to promote their cause in Taksim Square and Gezi Park. Standing in front of one, this man waves his flag while posing with conviction.

  • Many home-remedies are used to minimize the effects of tear gas. This woman has put a milky solution on her face, removing her mask after the tear gas dissipated. Before sunrise, the police came again for another round of teargasing.

  • People capitalize on the uprising -- selling flags, beer, gas masks, sky lanterns and spray paint to name just a few of the popular items.

  • On Monday morning, June 11, the police execute a strong offensive. Many plain-clothed police officers, like the ones seen here, clash with protesters in the side streets away from the main stand-off in Taksim.

  • The authorities seem to be most aggressive in the night, pushing protesters away from the square and park. After being teargassed this young woman catches her breath with other protesters on Siraselviler Street.
