    I think that's when there is billing, legal documentation and shipment involved....

    They didn't. When it was tested recently, it was found to be that of a woman.
    Fine - but that still shows they kept some charred steak that they thought was Adolph.

    Ditto with Osama. I'm not saying you stuff him and put it on display at the Smithsonian, but you just don't bury the corpse in order not to offend people. Osama has forfeited that right, given how many people he has offended.

    You might say you have disposed of the body, and then keep the corpse up your sleeve, but in such a way that a backpedalling can be done when Donald Trump insists on seeing the body.

    Harder to do that if he's in the Ocean.

    Let's face it, no-one wanted the corpse, especially Saudi Arabia. Dumping it in the world's biggest skip sends the right kind of message as far as I'm concerned.

    By the way, here's the DNA procedure (edited by me):
    • DNA is extracted from the sample and purified.
    • The extracted DNA is added to a special chemical mix for the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), a process that targets 16 specific locations in the DNA (called loci) and makes billions of copies of each location.
    • The products of PCR are analyzed to create a DNA profile, a genetic equivalent of a fingerprint for each tested party.
    • The subject’s DNA profile is compared with the comparison samples (in this case, the sister I believe), and statistical analysis is performed to determine the familial relationship.
    Not more than a few hours of cooking there if you have all the other information handy.

    They should stick it next to the alien body and the Holy Grail in that big Indiana Jones warehouse then.

    Bureaucracies never chuck stuff away.

    I have an uneasy feeling that this sea burial may come back to haunt the US

    Someone else's view:-

    Now children, are you sitting comfortably? Then your government will begin. Once upon a time there were three little pigs and they all sprouted wings. One little pig did not have a birth certificate so they faked one very badly so he could say he was the Big Pig and live with his snout in a trough in his little, well, not so little, white house.
    One day Big Pig, who was really only doing what he was told to save his bacon, announced that a naughty man who had died a long time ago had died again. The naughty man was very clever to do this, but he was well known for his little tricks. For years after he died the first time he still managed to speak on new videos and tell the people just how naughty he was.
    Then another little pig said that the naughty man had been thrown into the sea and so the people could not see his face and know that the Big Pig was telling the truth. But everyone with a brain knew that the Big Pig never told the truth and so they knew that Big Pig was telling more porkies.
    Big Pig and the little pigs showed the people a picture that was made up to fool lots of them, and, unfortunately, children, this was usually not very difficult to do.
    The End.

    They will need to 'retrieve it by submarine' (mindful that it really isn't in the sea), because nobody is ever going to shut up about this conspiracy theory. This will grow and grow.

    And obviously they can't admit it is in the freezer in the White House, because then the President is caught lying.

    Is burial at sea permissable for a muslim ? Some say not. Osama bin Laden buried at sea - was it proper? No, say Muslim scholars

    So just catching up today, is there any pic of the body yet?

    Seems like the only photo we have been offered so far is the one of Obama and his crew supposedly watching Osama die.

    he was probably lying in his bed with all kind of medical equipment around,

    quite cowardly of Americans to assassinate him like that when they could have brought him back alive and then shoot him in public on ground zero, now that would have been spectacular and they could have sold tickets for the events

    If I am wrong about this, I am willing to take the heat. If I am right you will all loose some street cred which is not that painful. If you guys are right I will also ackowledge you all know more than I do about conspiracy and US political gain, but I don't think so.
    You don't need to wait.

    The lynch mob and posse have already performed their "wild west" justice. The civilised world has moved on from this necessity. the human rights of an individual has been recognised for many decades.

    "An eye for an Eye" was dismissed by civilised people some centuries ago, except it seems in the US

    He mentioned that the West seeks to rebuild its damaged face in the international community, and reiterated that Bin Laden’s survival could endanger the interests of the western countries and disclose their past and future clandestine operations.
    Jahangirzadeh warned the world countries that the West has hatched a new plot to find new pretexts for invading and occupying the Muslim countries."

    You seem to think that there is not truth in the statement. Have you a court transcript where this view has been tested?

    Mmm... and just how many jocks do you think would be queueing up at night to take a piss?

    Or perhaps you mean he could have been deposited under the foundation stone of the new building bearing a plaque inscribed " here lies Usama Bin Laden who made all this possibe " ? Yeah, sure, I'd love to go up and down those elevators happy in the knowledge I was in the safest building in the world.......

    Stick to your day job, Butterfly.
