Bin Laden Given Religious Funeral Prior to Sea Burial

[Vi-Jay 218]

From what I have read Muslims are only buried at sea if the death happens on a ship.

That was explained on the various news networks throughout the day.

[Sofiyya 1,687]

It happens but some clerics are saying that only when he is killed at sea can he be buried at sea.

I don't know what kind of clerics even care what they did with him. Besides, possession is 9/10ths of the law, and those who possessed him decided to flush him. That's fine with me.

I agree with you on that. Quite frankly I could give a rat's #### what they did with his body.

Because he is a animal and not worth the money spent on the ceremony.

Every dead person deserves to be buried in dignity irrespective of religion , color or creed or what they did in the past .

What about Hitler? Stalin?

They probably didn't even bury him. They just said they did to be politically correct. I'll bet they have his body stored in a freezer. You can't tell me that after all these years they knock him off and throw him in the ocean less than 24 hours later. Think about it.

Agreed. You would think they would have brought him back to the US for an autopsy. This burial at sea thing sounds like bs. Now I'm starting to wonder if they actually got him, or if they always had him stored somewhere...either alive or on ice.

I believe they got him, the fallout would be too great if it was a hoax. I just thought they dumped him awfully quick. I don't buy the following Islamic customs line. The guy was an evil man and killing innocent people meant nothing to him, even though he was a coward himself.

Where a sample of his DNA will be used to clone a new leader for Cobra. I saw this on the internet.

As Napoleon's ####### became a world-famous "souvenir"

hoarded by his personal physician, I just couldn't help thinking...

How 'bout this;

1. They took him alive.

2. Telling the world he is already dead and buried him at sea to keep the crazies from negotiating hostages and or mass attacks, for his release. (Dead or Alive)

3. Enhanced interrogation methods being applied as we wait.

4. Will execute him with a bullet through the left eye when they are done asking questions.

5. Pics released.

I really think he is dead but, where the fck are the pictures?

There was a article posted in one of the Osama threads about these clerics, I believe it was this one.

If you read all of what I had posted in this thread you would of seen that I said he should get a pine box but no more. I dont think he deserves any sort of religious burial or that its even the US government's job to make sure he does. To separate us from the animals I believe we should put him in a pine box before dumping him overboard.

I couldn't help looking this up - now Bin Laden has something in common with the following:

A few notable burials at sea:

• Sir Francis Drake (1540–1596) (body in lead coffin off the coast of Portobelo, Panama)
• Edward Winslow (1595 – 1655) (buried at sea near Jamaica on 8 May 1655)
• Stan Getz (1927–1991) (cremated, and ashes scattered in the Pacific Ocean off Malibu, California)
• Robert A. Heinlein (1907–1988) (cremated, and ashes scattered in the Pacific Ocean) ^[8]
• Doug Henning (1947-2000) (cremated, and ashes scattered into the Pacific Ocean of Redondo Beach, California^[9])
• Edmund Hillary (1919–2008) (cremated, and ashes scattered in New Zealand's Hauraki Gulf) ^[10]
• Alfred Hitchcock (1899–1980) (ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean)
• Rock Hudson (1925–1985) (cremated ashes scattered)
• Janis Joplin (1943–1970) (cremated at Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery, and her ashes scattered into the Pacific ocean)
• Dennis Wilson (1944–1983) (cremated ashes scattered in the Pacific Ocean off California)
• Leyla Gencer (1928-2008) (ashes were scattered into the Bosphorus)
• DeForest Kelley (1920–1999) (ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean)
• Gene Kelly (1912–1996) (cremated ashes scattered)
• John F. Kennedy, Jr (1960–1999) (scattered into the Atlantic Ocean by the U. S. Navy off Martha's Vinyard)
• Werner Klemperer (1920–2000) (cremated ashes scattered)
• Peter Lawford (1923–1984), actor, was cremated and ashes originally buried at Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery; they were later removed and scattered in the Pacific Ocean.
• Steve McQueen (1930–1980) (cremated and ashes scattered in the Pacific Ocean)
• Robert Mitchum (1917–1997) ^[11]
• Vincent Price (1911–1993) ^[12] (ashes scattered off Point Dume in Malibu, California)
• Admiral of the Fleet Sir Alfred Dudley Pickman Rogers Pound (1877–1943) (cremated ashes scattered)
• Richard Rodgers (1902–1979) (cremated ashes scattered)
• H. G. Wells (1866–1946) (cremated and ashes scattered in the sea off England)
• Numerous RMS Titanic victims picked up by rescue ships, whose remains were too damaged to preserve or for whom the rescuers lacked sufficient embalming materials, were buried at sea
• Following the 1962 execution in Israel of Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi responsible for overseeing the extermination of millions of Jews during the Holocaust, his body was cremated and his ashes scattered at sea over the Mediterranean, in international waters. This was done in this special case since Israel obviously did not want such a person buried in its soil, and also did not want a grave elsewhere that might have become a place of pilgrimage for other Nazis.
• Osama Bin Laden (1957–2011)^[13] One U.S. official stated that "finding a country willing to accept the remains of the world's most wanted terrorist would have been difficult."^[14] It was also done to prevent his burial place from becoming a "terrorist shrine".^[15] However, Islam burial practices indicate that burial take place on land "deep enough so that no beast will bother the deceased. Burial at sea is also permitted to prevent the body from being dug up and desecrated.

I just want to know why the US would use him for an excuse to invade Afghanistan, spend billions of dollars and human lives looking for him, and after ten years they get him and then dump him overboard to feed the fish. I mean how stupid can we be...
