=== Well I still don't agree that it was an honorable burial. You have your opinion, I have mine. And I don't see how it puts Americans more at risk. We're at risk because there will be retaliation for killing OBL, not for the way he was buried. ===

We could be subjected to revenge attacks because we killed bin laden. However, because we gave bin laden military honors, it sends a message to the countless muslim youth, that bin laden should be considered a military hero and not a islamic terrorist.

Muslim indoctrinators, for which there are many, can now use the military honors in their indoctrination of muslim youth to become suicide bombers, or to murder westerners, Christians or Jews.

=== If it was a bad, stupid and reckless idea, how would you have handled it that wouldn't put Americans more at risk? ===

I would have still dumped bin laden's body into the ocean, but without ceremony and without any honors. Just dump the worthless peace of dung, and be done with it!
