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...

Just be thankful the Seals didn't take him alive. This way, at least Eric Holder doesn't have a say.

Well even Obama admitted Bin Laden was killed “AFTER a firefight”

I think they should behead his corpse and put his head on a phone pole, as the men he paid to have killed in Chechnya were treated after kidnapping.

Rest in Peace now.....

Better yet, bury the leftovers in Moochell’s garden.

I know that's mean, but I really don't care. Killing the murdering Muzzie Bastard doesn't absolve Obama of the damage he is doing to this Country.

Yup, she’s good and thank you.

As one story went, most of our ‘regular’ guys would just stand there in awe of the Seals. Badassery just oozed off them. Not arrogant or anything, just had an aura that said ‘don’t FXXX with me.’ She said they’d come in covered in crap, no markings/insignia apparent under the dust, dirt etc. and you just ‘knew’ who they were.

That takes some doing ;)

Yeah, let's treat his body with the same courtesy Muslims treat enemy dead:

I've got some confusion here. Early reports were that this action took place sometime last week now the same sources are saying it happened today. Also they are saying his identity has been confirmed by DNA analysis but it's my understanding that DNA testing takes several days. So just when did this happen?

Islamic practice? The beheading kind they gave Daniel Pearl? Nick Berg?

Wish I has a few million dollars to open “The Museum of Muslim Violence” and display thousands of photos like that.

Somewhere around Ground Zero...like across the street from that damn mosque they want so bad.

Wonder if I could get enough people to chip in...

The army should hang OBL’s charred body from a bridge. Piss be upon him.

I hope that means his corpse was burned to ashes and hung from a bridge while mobs celebrated.
