Okay, good, I am not the only one who thinks this stinks.

We supposedly kill the spiritual leader of a terrorist group, a man who is supposedly over 6 feet tall and on some form of dialysis in a firefight with 6 Navy Seals? And then they supposedly confirm his ID through DNA sampling (where did they get the comparative samples?), then dump his body in the ocean?

I am sorry, but the US Military customarily shows proof of HVT kills through video or imagery. Saddam, and esp. his sons were shown on international TV through pictures and videos. Khalid Sheik Mohammad was dogged-and-ponied around the news outlets in his nasty stained shirt. But the biggest terrorist leader in the world is just dumped overboard, and we are supposed to believe that?

If Osama comes out in a video/audio tape in the next couple of days, I am going to literally laugh until I pee myself. I do not believe a damn thing this administration does, and I think this is a feint on their part.

6 seals? Not likely. I think you are very confused. Google Seal Team 6.

I'd heard we have DNA samples from a deceased sister. There's no way they confirmed his DNA in a matter of hours. It's just not possible in the real world.

An Al Queda spokesman says Osama "will be avenged" although WA Times didn't ID who this was and whether they were confirming Obama's story.
