A Speculation: What if Osama was NOT killed?
After I read about bin Laden’s death last week, I wondered: What if bin Laden is really alive?
Granted, this question is ironic—perhaps even comical—when considering that the President’s birth certificate credentials have been questioned. So far, Donald Trump has not asked anyone to see the death certificate. His wives seem attest that he was killed.
Dumping bin Laden’s body in the ocean seems odd; it is hardly the kind of burial we might of expected. On the other hand, it does prevent his burial from becoming a shrine.
Accomplishing this achieves several immediate goals. Declaring bin Laden dead allows the United States to use ANY means of obtaining information from him, since nobody will ever know the difference. Once they have extracted information from him, they can do with him as they see fit without anybody making so much as a whimper. By keeping his whereabouts top secret, the government does not need to worry about bin Laden’s constitutional rights (assuming he is on US property) or for that matter, the Geneva Convention’s Rules of War. Lastly, keeping his identity enables the American people to have closure-especially those who have lost loved ones on 9/11
Regardless of my political differences over Israel with the President, if this scenario is being played out as we speak, one must say that this approach would be worthy of a chess tactician; to win this war, one must play the game smart.
Just wondering . . .
