Dude, why are you so sensitive to Al Qaueda's sensibilities ? Are you some sort of secret jihadi set among us to try and sow dissension and foster a revolt inside the US, which would weaken us and make us easy to overthrow and impose Sharia ?

Is your middle name... *gasp* Hussein ? :devil:
The long form may be in order here :thumbsup: ...

Am I the only one who wonders if they really buried the body at sea? I am not saying that they didn't drop something in the ocean, it just might not have been Osama's body. Just sayin...

I anticipate that our questions will be answered during the next season of Deadliest Catch.

Bingo ~!~

Spot on ...make the announcement he is dead announce the DNA is positive and announce
he was buried at sea. Then ...... take him to an undisclosed location for some heart to heart
conversation and chemicals to the brain maybe some, heaven forbid, water boarding....

Couldn't happen, Rudie has read way to much Clancy and Ludlum....

Grace - Does SA mean San Antonio, South America, or what. Just curious as I live just north of San Antonio.

I think there's a message to this burial at sea. Nothing about this operation was by accident. Islamic tradition says you can be buried at sea only if you died at sea and are too far from land to make it back in 24 hrs. They could have stuck him in an unmarked grave on some nameless island, and called it good. There was plenty of time to plan for that.

How do you keep the grave from being desecrated ? Bury him on Cuba where the spot can be watched 24/7 ?

This wasn't a holy man to anyone but the most extreme of Islamic factions. I can't imagine any government wanting his body contaminating their soil. Not even Yemen.

Won't surprise me to find out this is what his family wanted.

Did you read my entire post? I don't advocate land burial for this guy. I think what they did was exactly right.

In which case I agree with " the message".

And furthering I think part of that message is we attempted to do what is right, and video from the USS Vinson hopefully will confirm that.
