A statement purporting to come from a son of Osama bin Laden denounced the al Qaeda leader's killing as "criminal" and said his burial at sea had humiliated the family, an online monitoring service said.
The statement, attributed to Omar bin Laden, bin Laden's fourth eldest son, said the al Qaeda chief's children reserved the right to take legal action in the United States and internationally to "determine the true fate of our vanished father," the SITE Intelligence Group said.
There was no independent confirmation of the authenticity of the letter, published on the website of Islamist ideologue Abu Walid al-Masri, although several specialists on militant propaganda said the text appeared genuine.Omar bin Laden, who has been based in the Gulf in recent years, did not immediately respond to emailed and telephoned requests for comment.
The letter said, in part: "We hold the American President (Barack) Obama legally responsible to clarify the fate of our father, Osama bin Laden, for it is unacceptable, humanely and religiously, to dispose of a person with such importance and status among his people, by throwing his body into the sea in that way, which demeans and humiliates his family and his supporters and which challenges religious provisions and feelings of hundreds of millions of Muslims."
The letter said the U.S. administration had offered no proof to back up its account of the mission. It alleged the goal of raid had been to kill and not arrest, adding that afterwards the American commandos had "rushed to dispose of the body."
Some Muslims have misgivings about how U.S. forces killed bin Laden in a raid in Pakistan on May 2 and disposed of his body in the ocean.
Questions have multiplied since the White House said the al Qaeda leader was unarmed when U.S. helicopter-borne commandos raided the villa where he was hiding in the city of Abbottabad.
Bin Laden's swift burial at sea, in what many Muslims say was a violation of Islamic custom, has also stirred anger.
**The Rant of a Mindful and Intolerant American Starts Now!**
Below you will read what I posted on the article... It was edited by Yahoo and so, here it is UN-touched...
Dear Omar Bin Camel-Jockey,
We here in the U.S. do not now or ever will care about YOUR opinion! Your "People" who you most likely share sever strands of DNA. It is not wonder that your people are always in a state of unrest and upheaval! You cover the women's faces due to them all looking alike and you want to image that they look different... Is it OUR fault that you rape the camels and ride off on your sisters, I mean the women? Not OUR fault! Furthermore Omar, I hope you and your family contract a raging crotch critters!
As far as your father's sea burial... Personally, I could have come up with a LOT more creative ways that would have been more fitting and a lot more fun to have disposed of that useless corpse that was once the shell of an absolute COWARD!
Best wishes and look at the bright side, you don't have to go shopping for a tie or card this year for Father's Day! Looks like we did you a favor!
Sincerely,
Red Blooded American...
Thoughts that were not in the note... These Muslims LOOK for a reason to be pissed off! They are in a constant state of disarray and turmoil... The Camel Jockey Rag Heads can all crawl into a hole and die for all I care! I really think that no one would notice, well... Aside from the world being a lot safer and less chaotic. Whatever...
