Oh my, did Americans hear Obama say in his message last evening that 9/11/2001 was not the result of Islam? Why should Osama Bin Ladin be buried at sea if he was not an Islamic Terrorist Obama said it----- so it must be true that Osama Bin Ladin is not of the Islam religion---Muslin? Yes or no? Osama Bin Ladin was an Islamic terrorist? Yes or no? Of course Ladin was an Islamic Terrorist----how dumb does Obama think the American people and the people of other nations are? America and other nations have been fighting the Islamic Terrorists for decades. mj ____________________________________________________________ In reference to the following Bin Laden to Be Buried at Sea ASAP? from The Corner by Daniel Foster Per Islamic tradition? No joke: U.S. officials tell me the last thing they want is for his burial place to become a terrorist shrine. To avoid that, an informed source tells me, the intention is the bury his body at sea — leaving no definitive location for the final resting place of his body. A senior administration official tells my colleague Jake Tapper this about the body: "We are ensuring it is handled in accordance with Islamic practice and tradition. It's something we take seriously and therefore it's being handled in an appropriate manner.?" Under Islamic tradition, ABC's Zunaira Zaki reports, the body would be washed by Muslim men and buried as soon as possible, usually by the next prayer (Muslims pray five times a day), although there may be delays under certain circumstances (for autopsies, for example). The body is usually buried in a simple white sheet — whether buried in the ground, or at sea.
