Because we call *them* barbarians. So what you're saying is that Pres. Bush is a barbarian!?!
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was identified by facial recognition, fingerprinting, known scars and tattoos and the U.S. military did an autopsy and x-rays on him. No Muslim funeral.

Why bring the body back when all you need is a tissue sample. DNA doesn't require a body, it literally only requires a cell.
Why the hurry to get rid of the body? The military/administration/someone had to know there would be doubt without photos or something.
And, if you bring the body back, the transpo time alone exceeds the Islamic burial standard. Why unnecessarily poke our enemy in the eye, creating a point of sympathy for bin Laden adherents in that part of the world.
Who cares about Bin Laden adherents? People so stupid to be appeased that we gave him proper religious burial (after friggin blowing his face off?!) are just that, too stupid to be appeased no matter what we do.
The burial at sea makes COMPLETE sense. No, it's not entirely in the Muslim tradition, but it does foreclose the possibility of a large shrine being built to house the "martyr". The burial at sea is something of a stroke of genius.
Not that quickly. If there was a chance they could have taken the body, cleaned it up for a "presentable" photo like the two Hussein sons.....that's what we should do. Burial at sea could happen any time. Now the administration is debating whether they'll release the photo they have......it WILL be gruesome. If they were worried about creating a point of sympathy, any photo of osama's face gone will do far more than not adhering to the 24 hour burial.
IMO, this was too hurried in disposing of the body at sea, and ESPECIALLY adhering to there islamic burial custom. THAT is particulary foolish (IMO, of course).
This was probably John Brennan's "bright" idea.

It would have been better to run his sorry corpse into the garbage grinder, then straight into the sea.
Who authorized this politically correct b.s.??
OH!, I know, our Muslim community organizer who does not have a birth certificate.

"Dumping the body into the sea is not part of any Islamic ritual," said Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy and a physician of internal medicine. "Koranic scripture says God created him and he must return to the earth." all in due time. He WILL return to the earth.... as fish poop.

Let me be the first, WHERES THE DEATH CERTIFICATE?![](http://www.brokencountry.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/munchkin-coroner.jpg)

To: bgill
20 mins later after it came out hundreds of students came to the white house with their obama signs and shirts
we all know that obama likes hollywood theater as we saw from the election
As the day goes on there are more questions than answers not that the biased media is asking them.
Something is fishy, no pun intended and they do not take with them the women who were there and could give valuable info.
Surprised too that the paki army did not do anything seeing as there was a base right next door.
Maybe had orders not too.
But prayers for him now oabma has some explaining to do for sure and if the media thinks this will be ignored then no way,I hope everyone puts this up on their social sites and tell everyone you know seeing as we cannot rely on this biased media and the gutless GOP

In accordance with Islamic practice, bin Laden was washed and wrapped in a white sheet before buried at sea at 2 p.m. local time, senior U.S. military and intelligence officials said. If we absolutely must have a burial at sea, I would have preferred Dexter's practice of washing the pieces and wrapping them in plastic sheets before dropping them into the Gulf Stream where they'll never be found.

now doing prayer service for a man who killed 3000 and ordered from the white house.

if we didn’t do it then it would be more fuel for the fire
I know you’re new here and maybe not heard as much or maybe getting your info your your local news etc but to say it would add more fuel is plain nuts
did you even read what you wrote?
We are in a war , supposedly we have killed a man who is responsible for 3000 deaths and more after and you say this is smart that obama said give him a muslim send off and prayer.
WTH
I hope you are joking not even the Dems I know are alright with this

This story is starting to stink and the gubment is starting to contradict itself already.
The Paks, knew-they didn't know.
The paks were on the scene during-the paks did not get notified until later.
The chopper stalled and was abandoned-it was attacked with RPGs.
OBL was asked to surrender-it was a kill missions. If we could have gotten him alive we would have-it was a kill mission.
If they have been planning this for so long with so many meetings (a typical liberal trait) why the conflicting stories.

yes I have been in uniform and seen combat.
If you think us giving him a frigging prayer, giving him a islamic send off etc is a good thing then I really do despair, I couldn’t careless if they get offended with killed him and ditched him which should have been after we showed him to the world DEAD
Giving him a islamic send off Frigging speechless and now we have a couple on here saying it is a good thing as we don’t want to upset them
WTF

This gets me sick.
If they did not want to bring the body back they should have burned it with his Koran.
