The original report said that bin Laden was buried at 2:30 am, but it didn't say what time zone. He was supposedly killed at 1:00 am Pakistani Standard Time. Now the newspapers are saying he was buried at 2:00 am Eastern Standard Time, U.S. This would give the Navy Seals 10 hours to wash, wrap, read prayers, transport the body, weight it and deep-six it. So that's certainly doable. Some of the other issues are still unanswered. The government is apparently deciding whether to release a "gruesome" photo. Photos can be doctored, of course. They say they made a DNA verification, but nobody knows where they got the DNA of relatives to check on. So there are still unanswered questions.
I couldn't stand Ronald Reagan, but I did appreciate it when he said, "trust, but verify." However, when it comes to the government, I don't really trust all that much either.
