7 Years Later, 9/11 Hijackers’ Remains Are in Limbo
nytimes.com ^ | September 20, 2008 | SEAN D. HAMILL

Seven years after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, the remains of 13 of the 19 men responsible have been identified and are in the custody of the F.B.I. and the New York City medical examiner’s office.

But no one has formally requested the remains in order to bury them.

“Politically, one can understand that this is a hot potato,” said Muneer Fareed, secretary general of the Islamic Society of North America and a former professor of Islamic studies. “People don’t want to identify with the political equivalent of Jeffrey Dahmer.”

What would happen if someone asked for the hijackers’ remains is not clear.

Hell, I’ll ask for them. Hand them over and I’ll find something appropriate to do with them.

Toss ‘em in the trash. It’s not like they belong anywhere except a landfill anyway.

Limbo.

NYT calls death Limbo.

Prove they are not dead, before anyone calls me on it.

Yes, in the dump at the pig farm. It’s a great suggestion. We are probably PAYING to store them; maybe even paying to have someone in charge of them.

Common sense makes for such a different life/ government.

Cremate the remains and scatter their ashes wide upon the ocean. They do not deserve a burial.

I agree except they should never lay on American soil, not even a landfill. Send the POS’s back to ragheadland to rot.

After spending the today in NYC and visiting the WTC site, and spending time in St. Paul’s and the NYFD across the street from the WTC - get them the hell out of my country! Wrap em in bacon and get them the hell out!

Many heroes and honorable people are given this type of interment at sea. I say feed Atta and his Satanic crew to the pigs.

Yes, in the dump at the pig farm.

Recycling them as pig poop is too good for the muslim turdlets. I have a higher opinion of pig poop.

Wrapped the remains in uncooked spoiled bacon and then drop them off in the pig manure pile.

They don’t deserve to mingle with the ashes of others in the ocean as well.

I propose that we put them in the next shipment of radioactive waste.

Honestly...I am shocked that here was anything LEFT to identify, much less bury. You'd think that slamming into a concrete-and-steel building at 500 miles an hour would prety much turn a human body to so much hash.

I'm actually for sending them back to Mecca.

Individually.

Wrapped in pig flop.

Dropped on the Grand Mosque.

In the middle of the Hajj.

Green is the signature color of Islam...
Therefore, we need a “green” solution.

Feed the remains to pigs, gather the pig excrement and use that to fertilize the green grass upon which our warriors in green uniforms picnic on green watermelon....

Yeah, right. The DUng beetles and Kos-sacs would build a shrine for the remains if able.

7 YEARS! For what reason, incinerate them and let their ashes be mixed with the ashes of garbage (apologies to the garbage).

They don't deserve a decent burial, or a grave. Their "loonies in arms" don't mind desecrating non-Muslim bodies, if they ever return them.

I never understood why the Israelis give back the remains of homicide bombers, throw the remains in the sewer.

Feed em to pigs. Feed the pigs to dogs. Scoop up the dog poop and ship it to next of kin along with a nice video presentation of the disposal process.

Use their ashes to make the concrete for the base of a giant gesticulating tourist attraction statue somewhere between Vegas and Barstow.

Zit seems that the only way to identify the remains would be to have dna from family members for comparison. So why have none of the families asked for the remains? They submitted dna, but now they don’t want the remains?
