>>11925962>Buried at sea for no logical reasonTo avoid an international incident. They don't keep bodies long after they're dead over there.They needed to either bury the body or piss the Middle East off even more then they already are.
The options were bury him over there which would give him a gravesite people could visit and make a martyr out of him, bury him here which would give him a gravesite where people could visit and piss on his grave which would make international relations worse, or chuck him in the ocean where there is no gravesite, no body to be abused, and the likelyhood of it being turned into some sacred ground for worshipping him as a a martyr is zero.
There was plenty of reason to throw him in the sea, the U.S. handled it perfectly.
