I have very mixed feelings about all of this...I am afraid of what is to come now, I hope this was well thought through so that we and others may be prepared. I think I would have been happier with a 'capture" than a killing of OBL, why was his body already buried at sea....I know that other countries religons /customs are far different than ours but I am surprised it was done already.

From what I understand, Islam custom is to carry out a speedy burial, which oral and written accounts seem to equate to 24 hours.

I dont think we will ever know the complete truth, we have found out alot of new facts years after historical events that were kept from us.
