That makes sense to western-type thinking - But the reality is AQ does not hide their leaders deaths. They celebrate them. It is how they honor them. It would be seen as a great insult to UBL had he passed and AQ failed to recognize his passing....Again, understand for AQ and radical Islam it is much easier to spin the truth....then to hide a lie....
No reason they couldn’t honor him in private, especially when keeping his death from us furthers their cause. I’m sure that AQ has recognized his passing; and keeping his death a secret is their way of honoring him. The last time we saw live video of OBL (years ago), he looked REALLY bad, like he was going to die. And this most recent tape is an obvious forgery. I’m afraid that Ed’s Banana Limo has split the scene.
