You said -- "This may be an effort to lure the guy out if he is still alive--prompt him into making a mistake and revealing his location because the whole Muslim world is mourning his passing."
I have seen nothing that indicates the "whole Muslim world is mourning his passing."

My word choice was poor. But if the world was convinced that OBL was dead, there would indeed be widespread mourning in the Muslim world.
