Oh please. He was the ONLY one we were sooooo concerned about this PC garbage with? Why didn't we do this for anyone else killed on the battlefield? They are Muslims too right? Nah, we just left them there to rot. Also, I thought OBL didn't represent Islam? I thought he was a FAKE Muslim? Why the honors for a FAKE Muslim? There is just too much wrong with this.

The QUICK burial at sea and the QUICK burning of the compound(if THAT'S true) sure make it look phony....
I'm not saying what is true, and what is not, b/c I don't know, however, the burning of the compound bothers me, you'd think, that it would take days for them to go thru that compound, there would or might be way to much information they could unveil that would be stategically informational to the U.S.?

That's what we hear.
Who is 'they'? Who (by name and rank) made the decision to dump his body at sea? Did that person consult with any higher ups? How much time elapsed since the killing and the dumping of the body?
The decision to bury the body at sea was made in the course of action scenarios as it gave more time to gather the necessary evidence to prove it was Bin Laden. This decision was given the green light by Obama, according to John Brennan.

The body was given a burial according to Muslim law, so it happened within 24 hours of his death.

Pakistan said that the US staged the entire thing and that compound was empty. Kind of hard to get useful info out of an empty compound eh?

that was my question....not saying I believe it or not...but there are many unanswered questions here, and why did they kill him, why didn't they take him alive, like they did with Hussain?

Why? I thought he didn't represent the Muslim faith and Islam? This is pure BS.

I read they buried him at sea so they wouldn't build a shrine on his behalf...they will anyway...won't they?

Yep. And those wingnuts are probably the same folks who are still spotting Elvis Presley alive in public up to this date.
