I think you know my feelings on this....

LONDON (Reuters) – A statement purporting to come from a son of Osama bin Laden denounced the al Qaeda leader's killing as "criminal" and said his burial at sea had humiliated the family, an online monitoring service said.

The statement, attributed to Omar bin Laden, bin Laden's fourth eldest son, said the al Qaeda chief's children reserved the right to take legal action in the United States and internationally to "determine the true fate of our vanished father," the SITE Intelligence Group said.

There was no independent confirmation of the authenticity of the letter, published on the website of Islamist ideologue Abu Walid al-Masri, although several specialists on militant propaganda said the text appeared genuine.

Omar bin Laden, who has been based in the Gulf in recent years, did not immediately respond to emailed and telephoned requests for comment.

The letter said, in part: "We hold the American President (Barack) Obama legally responsible to clarify the fate of our father, Osama bin Laden, for it is unacceptable, humanely and religiously, to dispose of a person with such importance and status among his people, by throwing his body into the sea in that way, which demeans and humiliates his family and his supporters and which challenges religious provisions and feelings of hundreds of millions of Muslims."

The letter said the U.S. administration had offered no proof to back up its account of the mission. It alleged the goal of raid had been to kill and not arrest, adding that afterwards the American commandos had "rushed to dispose of the body."

Some Muslims have misgivings about how U.S. forces killed bin Laden in a raid in Pakistan on May 2 and disposed of his body in the ocean.

Questions have multiplied since the White House said the al Qaeda leader was unarmed when U.S. helicopter-borne commandos raided the villa where he was hiding in the city of Abbottabad.

Bin Laden's swift burial at sea, in what many Muslims say was a violation of Islamic custom, has also stirred anger.

status among his people

It is my sincere wish that all "his people" receive the same fate he did.

I can't fathom how these people live and think...it's ok for them as a people and religion to wish death and proceed in terror upon us just b/c we are white and do not believe the same as them...however, if we fight back they we are the one's that are in the wrong and what not...

It's alot like the racial issues in America...it's ok for blacks to be racist publicly and outlandish with it and no recourse...but the minute a white person says anything that COULD be possibly determined racist...well you all know where I am going...

Why do I also get the horrible feeling that American will eventually be hung out to dry for this and issue public apology and likely financial ammends for the killing of Osama Bin Laden? Won't that be a fun day in American history...

What we should do, is tell the Al Quaida and the Bin Laden's to shut the hell up or slap them in the mouth. That's what should be happening.

I agree totally. They should NOT have buried him at Sea.

They should have weighted him down and tossed him over at the Steele Bayou Flood Control Structure.

Now Boys this is a son of a Man killed By the USA...I say give him and anyone else wanting to see the grave site the chance ....toss their butts off the boat too.

[Sod Man]

Personally I feel like any country that ends in Stan should be wiped off the map. The
only burial at sea that could have been better would be put him in a northwestern crab pot and
let sig and the boys use him as bait

[levi127]

I'd wipe my A$% with the letter and mail it back to them!
He deserved to be dumped like a piece of trash going into a land fill. Heck im sure they could of came up with another 100 ways to get ride of him but figured that was the easiest and quickest way to do it.

Do you really think these navy men cleaned his body and put him in a white towel and prayed for his soul? heck no!!! they probably all pissed on him and tea bagged him!! Left him the way he was and gave him the finger as he was going overboard!

This crap pisses me off. We celebrate bc we got the number 1 man. Split the money to the seals or give it to the head corp for them to use how they please, keep records. But they think we are wrong for doing it.
Yea yea people say what if the iraq was walking around and bombing us on our own turf and so on. Bring it punks! We have enough people that hunt that can take care of them. Yea they got snipers, but we got more! Just like the article a while ago said about 3 or 4 states. Enough people to have the largest army in the world that deer hunt alone! Throw some rednecks and hillbillies in there and we can come up with some stuff.

Sorry if I offend someone thats a treat all people fair and hug trees! I suggest you go to another thread and read and move on.

Well we would have buriEd him on land but figured that his bacon and sausage lined pine box would start stinking after a while.
