Read elsewhere no solider(sic) actually witnessed the burial.

Any idea how many soliders(sic) serve aboard a CVN?

To show any respect to this low life killer of innocent Americans is an outrage. In the past, enemies who were killed on the field of battle were treated with less respect than this monster. They were dragged and thrown into mass graves in the process of cleaning up the battlefield. It wasn’t done out of disrespect, but a matter of necessity. But those men deserved more respect than OBL. When will we learn. OBL should have been tossed into the sea with the day’s garbage, and the fact should have been publicized as such. Were the Japanese dead on Saipan interred in a Shinto ceremony, no. We did not engage in such nonsense until this present shallow times.

The ‘inappropriate judgement’ must have been in allowing the supposed body of Bin Laden, if it really was, a Muslim ritual burial.

He should have been lashed neath an F-16 and sent splat up the side of the Hajj. More fitting to the manner in which he dispatched 3000 Americans that day.

What, no traditional sodomy, dragging through the streets or decapitation?

I would have cut off his head & put it atop the Empire State Bldg. Give them a taste of their own medicine.

From the Marine’s first incursion onto the “Shores of Tripoli”, to General Patton’s WWII, “traditional Islamic procedures” for the US military included pig’s blood. Hopefully this will some day be restored.

Isn't this the selfsame admiral who was in command of the Carrier Group in the Med when the Benghazi massacre went down? IIRC, he had intended to send help over his orders, and was relieved of command on the spot.

This is a snow job to justify that, just like Petreus' mistress (as if that is unusual in D.C. circles). The alleged classified material on her HDD could have been put there by most any hacker worth a check.

Both of these people either said they did not issue orders to stop a rescue operation or had done so, countermanding orders from higher up the food chain. Now they both are being drawn and quartered in the press to pay for their sins.

The coup continues, Chicago style.

Badly worded, let's try that again:

Both of these people either said they did not issue orders to stop a rescue operation or had shown intent to issue orders for a rescue operation, countermanding orders from higher up the food chain. Now they both are being drawn and quartered in the press to pay for their sins.

That makes more sense.

Nice try, but everybody knows that the SEALs sewed him into a rancid pigskin and threw him out of the helicopter after chumming the water for sharks.

The reason nobody on the Carl Vinson saw a ceremony is because they took Osama out of a freezer and gave him a heliocopter ride halfway to the Carl Vinson. Bin Ladin likely got the heave ho at about 2,000 ft out the side gunner’s door. Hasta La Vista Baby!!!

A cadaver in the ocean is often set upon by hagfish, "the most disgusting sea animal", that burrow into the cadaver and eat their way out, while producing copious amounts of disgusting slime to drive away other scavengers. An adult hagfish can secrete enough slime to turn a bucket of water into slime in minutes.
