Are you calling our Navy Seals liars? Why do you hate the troops so much?

Default Was Bin Laden's burial at sea necessary !

What question does this raise....
Is he really dead ! I would love to think so.
Many don't believe , but many more want to.
You know this is not the first time
they said he's dead !!You would think
due to the matter at hand , being the number
one most wanted , they would have kept the body !
One article I read said the sea burial was
necessary : [URL]http://www.whocareswhatisay.com/?id=664[/URL]

Of course he is still alive. Al Queda is only saying he is dead to help the US government! Makes perfect sense!

They had to bury him quickly to comply with Muslim law (so as not to upset radical Islamists). They didn't want to leave him in the ground where a shrine could be built.

Naturally they end up in a bit of a catch-22 where if they don't bury him at sea it could **** off extremists, and if they do bury him at sea it'll raise the skepticism of conspiracy theorists.

But think of all these great posts we would have missed out on if they hadn't!

The US had a 24 hour window in which to bury Osama Bin Laden. I feel that Obama rushed too quickly to dump his body into the ocean. Instead, he should have held a conference with other Arab leaders and the United Nations to decide where to bury his body. I think that he should have given a chance for other countries to have an input as to what to do with the body.

This situation is typical of the US. And it reminds me of when Bush attacked Iraq without waiting for the UN to sanction removing Saddam Hussein. Obama is really not that much different a president than his predecessor ole GW.

Obama had this done because he's a PC COWARD !!!

They should have just blown his carcass to pieces and aired the video. But of course not Obama didn't want to insult people that behead others and kill people in the name of allah.

Obama doesn't have the spine to do things right.Instead he wants to be respectful of the animals that hate and kill Americans.

Only an idiot would go out of their way to insult people capable of such things.
