In Muslim World, Many Doubt bin Laden's Demise - WSJ.com

"It's not so much about bin Laden as it is about the U.S.," Mr. Hamid said. "The U.S. has provided its narrative to the world—and the natural reaction of many people is to cast doubt on whatever the U.S. says."

In Afghanistan, many compared bin Laden's death with the 2007 killing of the Taliban's chief military commander, Mullah Dadullah Akhund, by a coalition Special Operations Forces team. In that case, the militant's bullet-ridden corpse was quickly put on display for journalists, to dispel any doubts.

"When the Americans killed Mullah Dadullah they publicly showed the footage in the media and to everybody," said a Taliban commander in Afghanistan's Khost province, reached on the phone Tuesday. "If they have really killed Osama, why they don't show us the proof?"
Hm. Well, maybe Mr. Taliban Commander should send Mr. Bin Laden a message via courier, and see if he gets a response.

I am mostly with you on this one. I dont give a rats azz what the Muslims want done with his body. He didnt deserve a respectful burial. AND if they insisted it be done ( the government) why so soon?

They cant make a shrine out of his burial place if they dont know where we put him.

Why now?

Where's the proof of death?
To anyone who can concoct a good conspiracy, there is no satisfying proof. And most anyone can come up with a conspiracy theory. Photos? Doctored or faked. DNA? Unverified. A video? Pure Hollywood. Eyewitness accounts? They're liars. Personally, I don't believe anything outside my front door is real. I've been drugged by the CIA to make it seem real. Or wait, I got it... the "real" world is all an elaboratly staged act. The alleged people are either actors or robots and all the plants, animals and supposed man-made things are simply props. I look up into the night sky and what I'm really looking at is a dark silk dome about a mile up with stars and a moon projected onto it. In truth there is no such thing as day, night, or even a sun and a moon. It's kind of cool when they project an airplane flying overhead.

I could go on but the foil helmet is pressing against my throbbing temples.
