Leaked: Bin Laden not buried at sea, body moved on CIA plane to US...

The body of Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden was not buried at sea, according to leaked emails of intelligence firm Stratfor, as revealed by WikiLeaks.

Stratfor’s vice-president for intelligence, Fred Burton, believes the body was “bound for Dover, [Delaware] on [a] CIA plane” and then “onward to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Bethesda [Maryland],” an email says.

The official version is that the body of Al-Qaeda’s top man, who was killed by a US raid in Pakistan on May 2, 2011, was buried at an undisclosed location at sea in a proper Muslim ceremony.

"If body dumped at sea, which I doubt, the touch is very Adolph Eichman like. The Tribe did the same thing with the Nazi's ashes," Burton commented in another email. Eichman was one of the masterminds of the Holocaust by Nazi Germany. He was captured by Mossad agents in Argentina and, tried in Israel, found guilty and executed in 1962. His body was cremated and his ashes were scattered at sea over the Mediterranean.

"Eichmann was seen alive for many months on trial before being sentenced to death and executed. No one wanted a monument to him so they cremated him. But i dont know anyone who claimed he wasnt eicjhman [sic]. No comparison with suddenly burying him at sea without any chance to view him which i doubt happened [sic]," Stratfor CEO George Friedman replied.

"The US Govt needs to make body pics available like the MX's do, with OBL's pants pulled down, to shout down the lunatics like Alex Jones and Glenn Beck," Burton says in another message.

In another missive Burton says Osama’s body “is a crime scene and I don’t see the FBI nor DOJ letting that happen.”

WikiLeaks began publishing Stratfor emails in late February. The archive was obtained by the hacker group Anonymous, which successfully attacked one of the firm’s servers. More than 5 million emails were apparently stolen.

Stratfor is a US-based intelligence firm called the “shadow CIA” by some media. Among its clients are several US agencies and many big companies. The company relies on paid tips from informants placed in high circles of business, government and security all around the world.

It does not matter if it was a private email as the email is now public and it is evident that Stratfor is comfortable with using derogatory names for Israeli Jews Moreover, you would that a company that peddles security data would be able to secure their own computers.

The Obama administration had to have known that the quick burial at sea was going to create speculation, conspiracy theories and disbelief. There was absolutely no reason to handle it the way they did, unless...........

If he wasn’t shaved of all body hair, put in a teddy and fishnets and spike heels and made to strut his stuff in front of jeering bunch of marines, I do not believe justice has been done

Sorry, I wanted humiliation big time.

We can at least agree that they should have protected secret data better. I just don't find “the Tribe” derogatory.

Do you have another reason to believe Stratfor is particularly anti-Semitic or anti-Israel?

I know George Friedman and know that he has participated in exercises with Israeli Security forces. Your conjecture is worth absolutely nothing.

It is not conjecture.

Friedman’s organization condones pejorative terms to refer to the Jewish people.

That again is not conjecture, it is fact.

And it is a fact that Friedman’s firm while peddling security data is incapable of securing their own data.
