Ok, sice RICKAMAVEN is perplexed about the burial at sea, let's start a conspiracy thread.

I'll start: Osama bin Laden isn't dead.

The SEAL team incursion was a snatch-and-grab. The death story is a cover. Idi Amin Jr. grabbed him, wants to interrogate him, but doesn't want to make it look like he is a total and complete hypocrite (which he is anyways) by torturing the guy for information, then executing him without a trial.

A burial at sea is perfect. No way to recover the body. He's dead to the world.

Then they play-up that they hit the motherloade of intel caches, when the reality is that they not only have intel from his computers, but they are torturing him to extract every precious word he can utter from his still-breathing body.


Please, feel free to add your own.

I really hope this is true and he is being waterboarded with carbonated pork broth poured through Oprahs nether regions after a nice jog. I would actually respect this administration if that was the case.

Found this one on a right wing board.

This arrived in my in box, forwarded from a friend of a friend. I rewrote it and reworded it, to protect the chain of information. Some of you may know I was an officer in the Teams a few decades back. I still have contacts among the active duty community, and former frogs who are now working "in country" as security contractors.

Here's what really happened. OBL was taken down on the third floor, that's true. He was cornered and then jacked up. He was then, deliberately in front of hysterical witness, shot in the face and head with red 9mm paintball "simunitions" out of an MP5. Real blood was thrown around for effect. In the crazy glare of battle lights it all looked quite realistic, and the witnesses will go to their graves believing they saw OBL killed in front of them. But that didn't happen.

He was stunned, knocked out with a hand taser, then hooded and bagged and dragged out to the helos. Then a dummy was "buried at sea" in his place, no photos are going to be released, and here we are. The world believes OBL is dead, so the agency and foreign interrogators don't have to be gentle with him during his prolonged "debriefing" in a secret safehouse prison with only one guest. This was their "best case scenario" among the options confronting them depending on the amount of resistance encountered in the compound and the house. They achieved their optimal goal, the "jackpot." OBL is alive and under interrogation in a secret safehouse, and the world believes he's dead.
