There are a couple of really good blogs already on the death of Bin Laden, so I am not going to go there. I just have one question. Do you think the United States government really buried Bin Laden at sea within 24 hours?
I have never thought of myself as a conspiracy theorist and I'm not saying that this couldn't happen or didn't happen.
How many documentaries and news stories have I seen that clearly state "This is not a CSI TV show, you don't get DNA results by the end of the hour."? I've seen more than a couple. Did they have some sort of mobile lab, complete with the technicians, etc to carry out those tests?
I would think that there would be a whole bevy of scientists who would want a gander at Bin Laden's brain or kidneys or tissue samples. Who wouldn't want to know if there was some sort of pathology behind this mad man's evil tendencies? Maybe I am just more curious than others.
I understand about the burial at sea. There can be no shrines to beckon followers, no grave diggers, no martyrdom. That makes perfect sense. I know the 24 hours is in keeping with the tenets of their cultural practices and it makes sense not to offend millions of people who believe in Islam.
Twenty four hours seems a little quick for a government who will debate issues for months and then recess without a vote.
It almost seems just as plausible that there is a laboratory tucked somewhere deep beneath Area 51 where tests are currently be run. . .
"Who wouldn't want to know if there was some sort of pathology behind this mad man's evil tendencies?"
There is: its called religious fundamentalism. It's a real doozy.
And I don't like the term "buried at sea". It sounds too honorable. I would prefer to hear it referred to as "tossed into the ocean like an unwanted sack of garbage". Let the real "burials at sea" be reserved for people who deserve ceremony and honoring.
