    Why is there so much "conversation" in the news that Bin LAden was "buried at sea?"

    And why would that be a practical disposal of THAT body?

    How much more -unless Bin Laden's head was removed and preserved- could Pandaora's Box be opened for those who read a conspiracy-in-progress?

    If there was such a "buria,l" it'll be interesting to see who authorized it. (It would seem that such a decision could only be made by the CIC, but if it was allowed, that person must not have been much of a student of history.)

    Well military analysts stated that IF OBL was actually buried on our soil that terror extremists would glorify the gravesite. Now I believe THAT part of it at least....!!! But you're still right to question it.

    Official: Bin Laden buried at sea

    By MATT APUZZO, Associated Press
    Mon May 2, 3:40 am ET

    WASHINGTON – A U.S. official says Osama bin Laden has been buried at sea.

    After bin Laden was killed in a raid by U.S. forces in Pakistan, senior administration officials said the body would be handled according to Islamic practice and tradition. That practice calls for the body to be buried within 24 hours, the official said. Finding a country willing to accept the remains of the world's most wanted terrorist would have been difficult, the official said. So the U.S. decided to bury him at sea.

    The official, who spoke Monday on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive national security matters, did not immediately say where that occurred.

    I wonder what will be, or was, done with the adult son's body?

    Wouldn't the spawn of a cherished leader be exalted the same as the "absent" father?

    I always imagined the death of Bin Laden ending up in celebrations equal to those of Return of the Jedi. It was great to see americans celebrating, but I thought it would have been a bigger deal than it was.
    Just my $0.02

    Too much separation from 9-11 until now. If we'd been hit with more biggies during the past nine-years, then there would be bigger celebrations.

    WASHINGTON – The U.S. used multiple means to confirm the identity of Osama bin Laden during and after the firefight in which he was killed, before placing his body in the North Arabian Sea from aboard a U.S. aircraft carrier, senior U.S. officials said Monday.

    The al-Qaida leader was identified by name by a woman believed to be one of his wives — bin Laden had several — who was present at his Pakistan compound at the time of the U.S. raid. He also was visually identified by members of the U.S. raid squad, a senior intelligence official told reporters at a Pentagon briefing. Under ground rules set by the Pentagon, the intelligence official and two senior defense officials could not be identified by name.

    The intelligence official also said quite a bit of unspecified material was collected by U.S. forces during the raid. Without describing the material, the official said it is being analyzed by a team of people at the CIA.

    The officials said bin Laden was killed toward the end of the firefight, which took place overnight Monday in a building at a compound north of Islamabad, the Pakistani capital. His body was put aboard the USS Carl Vinson and placed into the North Arabian Sea.

    Inside the labyrinth of the compound, which was located about 20 miles north of Islamabad and not far from a Pakistani military training facility, the SEALs unit came face to face with bin Laden and in an intense fire fight, the Al Qaeda leader was shot in the head and killed."

    SEAL team 6 hasnt been active for years. You are thinking DevGRU. No, they are not the same thing

    You are correct, that why it's in quotes in the article. But yes it is DEVGRU Six was dissolved in '87 and DEVGRU was formed. But thanks for the correction, much appreciated

    "The United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG), commonly known as DEVGRU and informally by its former name SEAL Team Six (ST6)"
