Forums Forums National News Osama Bin Laden is dead

See, it doesnt matter what they did with the body it would have been frouned upon by them anyway, so they may have well kept it, which they did

Again not solid enough, should have brought him home for people to inspect an give confidence. I wouldnt trust what the american gov say as far as...

Look how they f ucked the indians over for a traintrack....all money related!

They should have kept the body. They could have got one of his relatives to ID him and then released it for a proper burial. Would have been the smart thing to do, a show of compassion from the Americans would be a rare and influential thing.

Yup, totally agree ex0, They appear to be all thoughtfull etc by giving Osama 'the sailor????' a watery grave, when infact the real thing to do would be to call in some relatives (on friendly terms) to pay respects. But nooooo, lets launch his ass into the ocean???

I smell bull shit.

To be honest, i don't know anything about these Operations. I would like to think that they beat him up, first.

I think they buried him at sea so that there wouldn't be a shrine to him if buried on land

There would be no shrine allowed if it was on american ground. They could do what they always do which is lock it away and ignor all request to see it.

They call that a 'Bradley Manning'.

Let's face it, he should have faced trial. But the order was dead or alive and I'm guessing the people in question who lead the raid decided dead was better.

Here's a good one, the picture that's being shown in the media is taken from this article which was written in 2006. : http://www.nowiraq.com/blog/2006/03/post-82.html

Poking around a bit it does look like the article was actually uploaded in 2006. Can check it on archive.org and a snapshot of the site was taken in 2008 (complete with picture..).

ex0 as must as I want to believe that I cant. It holds about as much ground to me as does his death. All I am certain about is you dont dispose of something you have been looking for for so long to keep a nation you have pissed off anyway happy?

Then again who can say if he was actually dumped at sea - it's only on their say so

I'm a bit of a conspiracy theorist myself so I won't believe it until it can be proven. The USGovernment has no credibility in my eyes. There's a huge amount to gain from claiming he's dead. Especially if he died long beforehand (no video footage for years now IIRC).

Edit: There were helicopters in Abbottabad last night though, this guy tweeted about it at the time of the raid: http://mashable.com/2011/05/02/live-tweet-bin-laden-raid/

Bingo, dont believe everything everyone tells you, like the americans who own lots of gold atm
