Of course he does. I can say this even knowing that we don't have any genuine portraits of Christ (the Turin Shroud having been proved a 14th century 'fake'). Both are of the semitic races which have included (and I have lifted this straight from Wiki - at least I'm honest about it...):

* Akkadians — appear ca. 2500 BC and amalgamate with Mesopotamian populations into the Assyrians of the late Bronze Age
o Assyrians — 20th century BC
o Babylonians — 18th century BC
o Chaldeans — 6th century BC
* Eblaites — 23rd century BC
* Aramaeans — from the 14th century BC, evolve into the Syriacs of the early centuries AD
* Ugarites, 14th to 12th centuries BC
* Canaanite nations of the early Iron Age:
o Amorites (Amurru, Sumerian MAR.TU) — invade Sumer in the 20th century BC
o Ammonites
o Edomites
o Everites (Hebrews) — founded the kingdom of Israel and Judah, the remnants of which became the Jews of Late Antiquity.
o Moabites
o Phoenicians
* Sabaeans of Yemen, Eritrea and Ethiopia, from ca. the 9th century BC, evolving into Semitic Ethiopian peoples from the 5th century BC
* Nabataeans — 5th century BC*
* Arabs — appearing in late antiquity

So, insofar as people of a racial 'type' tend to have similar features, and people of different races generally have different features, then it is more likely that Jesus would look like Osama, rather than say the late Pope JohnPaul, or the Dalai Lama.

People shouldn't forget (it's one of those things your mother teaches you) that you can't tell a book by its cover, and to condemn or elevate people simply because of 'looks' is a pretty shallow approach.

To condemn the questioner for putting both names in one sentence (and I get the sense that some here are), is really being 'oversensitive'. The questioner is not suggesting anything beyond appearances, and if his/her question provokes thoughts in our minds about the character of those two men, then that's not a 'bad' thing. Thinking about the nature of good and evil (and the shades inbetween) is a healthy exercise, especially as you reflect on your own path in the world.

But considering Christ and Osama: if we believe that one is good and the other is evil, then it is a nonsense to think that a matter of appearances would radically change our views. In fact it would be an insult to the depth of our convictions to suggest that we judge either Christ or Osama simply by appearances. The 'really' interesting question is what would Christ make of Osama, but I'm not going to ask that.

Hard to say since there are no pictures of Christ that weren't painted by a bunch of European white men.

Some may find similarity, because of long beard. But look at eyes, there you find the difference.

Well, I would say no, because no one really knows what Jesus actually looked like.

I hope not. For sure, he does not ACT as Christ did. He is a butcher and murderer.

Chow!!

strangely enough, he does resemble some modern day depictions of christ.

No not at all. He kind of resembles Rosie Odonnell though.
