7:35 am
difficult. according to islam, burial at sea is permitted in certain circumstances such as a long voyage where the body may decay and the risk that enemies may dig up the grave and mutilate the body. islamic tradition also call for burial to happen within 24 hours of death. although the 4-hour rule has not always been done by the u.s. just a day after president obama authorized the operation to kill osama bin laden, the world's most wanted terrorist was actually the butt of a joke. >> people think bin laden is hiding in the hindu kuch. but -- but did you know that every day from 4:00 to 5:00, he hosts a show on c-span." that was seth miers. >> as you saw there, president obama had laughed at the joke.
