OSAMA IS DEAD, DEAD, DEAD!!!!

Wasn't there a branch of monks that spent their whole lives doing nothing but writing down the different names of God? Wonder if they have Skyman and Dude in the clouds on their list?

Personally I believe burial at sea was the best option. He'll be martyred by his followers but they'll have no place to make a "shrine" for him....

maybe they tied smoked ham shoulders to the bag to weigh it down...
sharks love ham...

Ummm...ok. I don't see that happening.

Personally I believe burial at sea was the best option. He'll be martyred by his followers but they'll have no place to make a "shrine" for him....

Revelations 13:1 "Then out of the sea I saw a beast rising. It had ten horns and seven heads."

The beast will recover from a head wound, as if by miracle. A second beast will descend from space and order that we worship an image of the first beast.

This is why the space shuttle program is ending, and why the Allen Array has shut down.

Get ready to meet ET.... It's Satan.

Wrap him in bacon and stick him in the oven. When fully cooked, plant him in an Israeli cemetery. That f'r deserves nothing less.

...and it is the this sort of thinking that helps breed a new generation of terrorists. Hate on hate on hate.

It is worth remembering that funerals are for the living left behind. The dead person no longer cares. Depending on your belief he/she is either gone for good or being dealt with by a higher power.

So which group of living are you satisfying by proposing such a burial?

Revenge? He's dead, so who are you getting revenge on?

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.

Amen.

Just two thoughts about this issue:
1st)
It was not a good idea to kill Osama Bin Laden.
Why? Because the U.S. has enough tools to catch him or any other person without killing him. It costs the same planning an assault like this one with SEAL forces killing the bad guy, as it might cost in planning the same mission and get them as prisoners. Just an example: WWII and the Nürenberg Processes against the nazis (Albert Speer, Goebbels,...)in Germany. The U.S. should have taken all actions needed to get them, and keeping them alive until sentenced. There were images published of the nazi prisoners after their executions.
Osama Bin Laden did not only kill U.S. citizens but also people from all over the world. We had in Spain as well a bloody terrorist attack some years ago. The U.S. has the right to be very angry with this person but should have kept itself cool and should have let the judges make him the process. In the U.S. the death penalty is still available in most states, in case he was judged in the U.S. territory by U.S. laws system. In the European Union, as far as I know, we do not have the death penalty anywhere, which means that Osama Bin Laden would have spent all his life in jail, something similar as Albert Speer did in Spandau/Berlin for 20 years from 1948 to 1968 I guess it was. But this would have been too expensive and, why not, dangerous. Who knows?

2nd)
The code name Geronimo EKIA. I am affraid the native americans feel themselves quite offended and not only native americans. I guess they took this name because it is easy to remember and easy to link it with the past history of the U.S. Someone found it appropriated!! I personally do not care how you call the mission, it is your own business, but I think that was not a smart idea. It is a silly way to create more angry people.
Congratulations to those SEAL troopers for their success. Mission accomplished!
