#1 I always thought the "Buried at Sea" was a little to convenient and a little to hasty.

#2 Would all of this somehow explain the halal box lunches at Dover ?

#4 This actually strikes me as more realistic. A sea burial is just too simple, old-fashioned, clean. We don't do that anymore. I'm sure there would be a point to an autopsy - but what? Sure, to confirm that it was really OBL and not a double, but to whom would the evidence mean anything? The good guys trust the SEALs who whacked him, and the bad guys will believe whatever they want.

#5 this was a "belief" by some Stratfor source, not a fact. It will, however, get some good guys killed by the seething rage of the 7th century subhumans

#6 Coming soon to a theater near you. "The Takedown"

Real bullets, real helo-crashes, real SEALS, real Al-Qaeda, real Osama Bin Laden.

#8 Stuffed, mounted and to appear at the Democratic convention?

#9 I still like the theory that his skull now graces the Yale Skull and Bones Society shelf, right next to that of Saddam.

"The society has been accused of possessing the stolen skulls of Martin Van Buren, Geronimo, and Pancho Villa, but this has never been proven."

#10 Stuffed, mounted and to appear at the Democratic convention?

In a seat of honor beside Jimmy Carter

#11 Now spread the rumor OBL's body was fed to pigs & the results used to make paper for Korans to be printed on.

#12 So the 5000 witnesses to that burial were sworn to secrecy?

#13 Should have stuffed him and continued to send out audio tapes. With a little work we could have had Al Queda attacking Iran right about now.

#14 Instead we get contardictory tales of his death (hid behind his wife/died heroically) and now about his burial (at sea/not at sea) guaranteed to spark the legend.

#16 They wanna find out if he had AIDS.

No. They wanna find out if it's the same strain as Arafat's. Also to determine who was the top and who was the bottom, and who said "I love you" first.

#18 I think his death should not have been announced. Think of the knot that would have put in the Pakistanis' turbans.

#19 No, the "leaked" information said that a Stratfor member suspected that Osama had not been buried at sea, etc.
It's a Debka hypothesis, with extra salt.
Don't hitch your wagon to this one.

#20 Don't hitch your wagon to this one.

A man's gotta dream! I say: stuffed and mounted in the Seal Team 6 Rec Room, wearing a Hawaiian shirt, shades and holding a Budweiser.

#21 This is a crap story buffed up by America hating intelligence services.

Obama is too much a Muslim to disrespect a corpse.

#23 Gotta call bullshit. Russia Today stirring the pot. Don't need the body when you have the DNA.
