Sounds suspicious to me. And Muslims are claiming burial at sea has little to do with Islam. The announcement is probably done to incite violent response from Muslims against the USA. Warfiteers would like nothing better.

When ordinary people die in an accident or are murdered, their families are asked to confirm identity and claim the body. I think we're relying too much on the Gladio Gang telling the truth in this instance. They aren't interested in truth.

Osama bin Laden probably died of kidney failure years ago, or was murdered as Benazir Bhutto said to David Frost. OBL was a bogeyman used by the military-industrial complex to beef-up their corporate bottom lines for years. OBL was a rabid anticommunist and CIA/MI6 asset ever since the war on secular socialism in Central Asia began in the 1980s. He was always one of their's.

Translation: We found it increasingly difficult to fake videotapes of a dead person threatening the "free world". And so we're announcing OBL's death several years post-mortem. God save the military-industrial complex and fossil fuel industry.

Just wanted to share some initial thoughts on this news. And as I mention in the blog post, can't recommend Democracy Now's coverage of this today enough.

"A media that provided relevant historical context would have given us years of screaming headlines about these sordid kingpins in Karzai's government. Take, for instance, the case of Abdul Rasul Sayyaf, one of the senior fundamentalist warlords in Afghanistan. Sayyaf is reportedly the man who first invited a rich young zealot named Osama Bin Laden to Afghanistan to join the war against the Soviet occupation. Sayyaf literally built the future Al-Qaeda training camps with Bin Laden. For most of the past decade Sayyaf has sat as a Member of Parliament in Afghanistan supporting the NATO-backed Karzai government. In fact, he sat in the row right in front of Malalai Joya; I only know this because she told me about the day in parliament when he turned around and threatened to kill her. Joya, the young progressive woman, was later thrown out of parliament for 'insulting' thugs like Sayyaf, while Bin Laden's old mentor continues to enjoy his seat and all the attendant respect and privileges. Sayyaf spends his days in a fortified mansion compound in the district of Paghman, just outside of Afghanistan's capital Kabul, not unlike the mansion outside of Pakistan's capital where Bin Laden was found and assassinated this week by the U.S"[clip]

The celebrations are quite sickening. I am most definitely not sad about OBL's demise but the gleeful jubilation is over the top - add a few cheerleaders and you might think you're watching the supporters of a Super Bowl winning team celebrating a big victory.

I totally agree there is no reason to be so overboard like they are ..especially in light of the fact that they are responsible for so many attrocities and crimes against humanity as we type.

This new found respect for islam is a joke ..and if they want to brag about religious integrity ..how bout an eye for an eye in which case they should be experiencing 9'11s on a weekly basis...just saying.. Truth and justice are out the window in light of all the goings on in the world the last 30 years especially sourrounding US foriegn policy.

Committing genocide is not respect for Islam.....there is a reason that country (US) is hated, and believe me it's no reason for celebration.

The time for jubilation will be tonite when we witness the birth of a new Canada...and the extinction of the Harper regime..God willing

Just further proof that the new breed of "Christians" are not really Christian at all - they're hatemongers.

Islamists in Jordan handing out sweets for OBL's "martyrdom"
http://elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2011/05/islamists-in-jordan-handing-out...

ordan's Ammon News reports that Jordan's Islamists are celebrating "the martyrdom of Sheikh Osama Bin Laden," saying that he left the world the way he wanted to.

Salafi jihadist Abu Qutaybah Majali recalled that Bin Laden was "anathema to the Americans and Jews and their allies."

Majali accompanied Bin Laden in Afghanistan from 1986 to 1991.

He vowed to "continue the jihad until the Day of Resurrection."

Salafists in Maan, an Islamist stronghold 250 km south of Amman, handed out sweets to celebrate his "martyrdom." That is usually done there where relatives of community members get killed in Iraq.

A town west of Amman had some shops close and raise black flags in a sign of mourning.

A spokesman for the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan, Jamil Abu Bakr told Al Jazeera "Osama bin Laden, may God have mercy on him, chose this path knowing the cost of confrontation and resistance to America and its allies the dictators in the region."

He continued, "Although we disagree with bin Laden in his approach, he stuck to his principles until the last moment, and stood in the face of the most powerful global force for ten years and did not appear in any waiver of his beliefs."

"We believe that as long as there is injustice and aggression, there will be resistance with multiple approaches to this resistance."

From the ECUSA Book of Common Prayer:

O God, the Father of all, whose Son commanded us to love our enemies: Lead them and us from prejudice to truth; deliver them and us from hatred, cruelty, and revenge; and in your good time enable us all to stand reconciled before you; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (BCP page 816)

The U.S. assassins killed Osama's 27-year-old wife and 22-year-old son, along with three other aides. Naturally they are spreading stories that Osama was a coward who tried to use his wife as a human shield.

Why do some babblers need to preface their remarks by saying, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not sorry he's dead, but..." Are they afraid they'll be accused of being on the side of the terrorists if they don't express "sober satisfaction" at this act of murder?

And we are still propping-up the likes of [url=http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=1030]Abdul Rasul Sayaff[/url] in Kabul. What a strange thing to be doing when we are supposed to be fighting a war on terror. The global war on terror is a phony one.

It would seem a mutual descent on all sides toward the nullification of importance of human life.

For myself, it's about expressing disgust at the reaction in my country while making it clear I was no fan of the guy. That's all.

It's inexcusable that they killed Osama's wife and child as well.
