If it was so important to get OBL's body, why did they dump it in the ocean?

...our government at work...if you don't know what to do with it...dump it in the ocean...Hueys, fighters...terrorists...who's gonna clean this mess up?!!!

Really. If they were going to do that, why did they waste two bullets?

...afraid he might be a good swimmer????

Because he has been dead for three years and they did not want Bush to get the credit. Destroy the evidence of the rotted decomposed body and give credit to Odumbell.

Would not be surprised!!!

It's highly unlikely that he has been dead for years and they are now pretending that they killed him. The Pakastanis, Al Qaeda, the women with him, and everyone else knows if he's alive or not and wouldn't let Obama pull this off without calling him on the carpet about a several years discrepancy in death dates.

Reasons they would dump the body include the fact that they didn't dump it but needed a story to cover where they took it, that a forensic examination would show evidence they didn't want public, or that some part of the process didn't go according to plans. If I were to believe one of those reasons, I'd be inclined to believe the middle one as reports are now indicating that UBL was unarmed and assassinated with no attempt to take him into custody alive.

1. Verification of identification.
2. Photographic evidence of death.
3. Video evidence of death.
4. Biological evidence of identification through DNA testing.

They dumped the body because they no longer needed it for identification purposes, and to deny the ability for any grave to serve as a focal point and shrine to the madness and evil that UBL embodied.

I am willing to bet that in the near future, we will see two things released:

1. Pictures of the remains to prove he is dead.
- Along the lines of Uday, Qusay, Saddam, and Zarqawi.
2. Video showing the burial at sea.
-Preparation of the remains, and internment in the Arabian ocean in accordance with Islamic practices.

Money and power can make anyone do anything. Obama has introduced a criminal environment to Washington as we have never before experienced. Chicago politics at it's finest.

...seriously, I think that'd be reasonable proof...as much as we've had before...and more necessary to show it to his followers than the citizens of the US...it will demoralize them somewhat and will probably make their finances dip...

If he wasn't really dead, then he'd have a video out today calling Americans lying Satan pig dog heathen infidels.

If he's been dead for years, well I'm not really too fussed about that either, as long as he's dead.

But, I'd bet good money that he was actually shot by an American team in Pakistan this week.

If this was some big conspiracy to make Obama look good or whatever, they'd have "found" him in Afghanistan so we wouldn't be questioning all the money and support our "allies" in Pakistan have gotten over the years.

Precisely! One has to wonder if they used quick-set concrete for the overshoes. Shoot him in the head and dump him in the water - just like Chicago. Spent my first 35 years there.

Yeah but did they get a certified copy of his certificate of live birth.
