Why ISIS leader and founder Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi's remains were buried at sea
ABC News ^ | Oct 28, 2019 | luis martinez andkarma allen

The remains of ISIS leader and founder Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi were disposed at sea after he died during the U.S. military raid that targeted his compound in northwest Syria over the weekend, a U.S. official confirmed Monday.

Authorities would not reveal details about which U.S. Navy ship was used for the burial or in which body of water it took place, but they told ABC News that the procedure was similar to the one used to dispose of the remains of al-Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden.

In Islam, people are typically buried in the ground, without a casket, before the next of five daily prayer periods have taken place. But with al-Baghdadi, the U.S. government apparently decided it was risky to have a known grave, lest it become a shrine to the world's best-known terrorist.

Trump’s navy drowns al Bagdadi. Photos reveal that the revered world statesman was push off deck of ship without a lifejacket.

Parts usually remain after detonation - heads in particular.

Don't ask me how I know.

In keeping with the season, I’d have launched his head out to sea with a pumpking catapult. 1000 yards is not difficult.

which U.S. Navy ship was used for the burial


Why use a ship? Just chuck the remains from a helicopter.

Why not a grace, which Muslims can turn into a shrine?

But, before filling the grave, make sure it contains the body parts of pigs. Don’t tell them, but let them discover the ‘remains’ on their own. Imagine how insane they’d get (not that they’re not already insane, but...).

In all suicide vest explosions, the head comes off the body. Most likely, other appendages too.
Plenty of parts left to get DNA from.

Please - Do not disrespect the bacon. I do not want to eat any bacon that could have been fed to bacon makers. We have vultures and other critters. Just throw him in the desert.

The lower level ones should be fed to hogs in any case and youtube videos posted of the hogs snacking on jihadis.

Muzzies don’t think much of shellfish either, which I’m sure had a nibble

Maybe tenderize him with a wood chipper before harming the piggies.

There has been a lot of speculation that the dimwits unwittingly led SF guys to him! I call BS, but be sure those twit’s moves were widely monitored. The story I got was the Kurds tipped our guys off after his security turned.
