For the whole ordeal, I am mostly being hopeful that everyone, regardless of country, remains safe. I expect a huge pile of anti-Americanism on its way, but I also know America is equally full of idiots that would rather carry out hate crimes against Muslim Americans just because they're Muslim. :(
I just hope for safety everywhere.

found this explaining why the buried him at sea, wasn't in a religious manner.xD
The official said that finding a country willing to accept the remains of the world's most wanted terrorist would have been difficult, so the decision was made to bury bin Laden at sea. Furthermore, one suspects that the U.S. would not have wanted there to be a grave site for fear of it turning into a place of worship for bin Laden's followers. There are rumors, however, that the U.S. asked Saudi Arabia to take the body (bin Laden was born there), but it allegedly refused.
