I read they gave Usama bin Laden a proper Muslim burial, eventually depositing his body into an undisclosed part of Arabian Sea for his resting place. With the risk of sounding mean and cruel I must ask: what ‘resting’ place? This man went to his grave with much, much blood on his hands, that of moms and dads, boys and girls who didn’t have to die and didn’t want to die! ‘Resting’ place? May I suggest one? If he didn’t repent of his every transgression right before he died, and no, I do not believe that he did, his ‘resting’ place and ‘homecoming reception’ we find in Isa. 14:9-11, where it says: “Hell from beneath is excited about you, to meet you at your coming; it stirs up the dead for you, all the chief ones of the earth; it has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. They shall speak and say to you: ‘Have you also become as weak as we? Have you become like us? Your pomp is brought down to Sheol.” No red carpet treatment here! He has joined the “Hell of Fame” that includes the likes of Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini and others… Nothing ‘restful’ about that, if you ask me!
