The United States is treating Osama bin Laden's body in 'accordance with Islamic practice,' White House official says.

President Obama announced Sunday night that American forces killed bin Laden in Pakistan and that they took his body afterward. He said no Americans were harmed in the fight.

Asked how bin Laden's body will be treated, a senior administration official told reporters on a conference call that 'we are ensuring that is handled in accordance with Islamic practice.'

The official, who refused to be identified, said the matter is 'something that we take very seriously, and so, therefore, this is being handled in an appropriate manner.'

Sigh. Admit it though. You knew they would do this.

I suddenly have the hankering for some bacon...

Screw that! Wrap him in bacon and cook at 350 for 2 hours.

Sadly there was never a question.

But remember, the ‘boys’ had him a long time before they got back to HQ...I can imagine a bladder or two got emptied on the way so all is not lost ;)

Good. Doing that only serves to point out the obvious. bin Laden was a MUSLIM. And what he did is no different than what millions of other muzzies would do, if given the chance.

On another note... Anyone else catch Obama bin Lyin’s remarks tonight on how bin Laden killed muslims too? And How Islam is a peaceful religion and all that shite...

Obama had to go out of his way to add that bit of BS.

I’m surprised that Obama isn’t going to drag his body out on the campaign trail....lol. “Weekend at Bernie’s’ style.

They’ve already screwed the pooch on “Islamic Practice.” The body should have been buried within 24 hours, and I’m sure it has been touched by at least one infidel.

I’m sure the liberal view is that, if we don’t treat his body with respect and in accord with Islamic practice, then we would trigger retaliatory attacks. Just as the guy who burned the Koran was blamed for triggering violence, anything “wrong” that we do to the body of Bin Laden would be said to incite violence somewhere.

Which Islamic Practice are they going with....

....are they going to cut the head off or just strap on a bomb and blow it up?

I’m fine with either one, though a cremation and interrment in a bottle of Bacon Bits is a charming idea.

So, they couldn’t find a meat hook to hang him from and there were no chains available to drag him thru the streets and no trees tall enough to hang him high ???

Good point. They should have hacked off his head with a machete.

The senior official must be psycho
