Hello to All,
Two days ago,U.S soldiers in Guantanamo bay desecrated the Holy Koran.
Now I would like to ask from the world that Why America is doing this? 
Actaully I would to tend the world attention to this violation of Holy Koran.
Have you ever heard that a muslim world desecrated the Bible? No Never.
Now I would like to ask you a simple and easy question,Why they are doing this,for what purpose,And all they did on purpose.
I would like to know your comments about this issue.

Correction: two days ago, we found out about it. Who knows when it actually happened or how many times. Here is the original news source that leaked the information: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7693889/site/newsweek/ and scan down to the story "GUANTANAMO:A Scandal Spreads".

The article states clearly, "in an attempt to rattle suspects". Not that I'm defending them. I think it was wrong, stupid, wrong, reckless, and WRONG.

No, you don't hear much about them desecrating the Bible itself, but you hear a lot about certain extremist Islamic groups desecrating churches and killing Christians.

Where is the mutual respect? The idiocy on both sides needs to stop. |

Ok Mr.Bob,
Then listen,if your question is that Islamic extremists targeting Churches in Iraq,then you are absolutely wrong.Because before war Iraq was safe and secure country,complete peace was there,there was no killing but now there is a civil war going on because of US invasions.let me know why US invaded Iraq? After all there was peace.
listen there is no point in argueing about US. US is the sinner for all this.

The story, in Newsweek, turns out to be untrue and Newsweek has apologised.
"Newsweek hid behind anonymous sources, which by their own admission do not withstand scrutiny," Whitman said. "Unfortunately, they cannot retract the damage they have done to this nation or those that were viciously attacked by those false allegations."
After Newsweek published the story, demonstrations spread across Afghanistan and Muslims around the world decried the alleged desecration.
Once again the Muslims go off half-c o c k e d! |

Because the western world has a burning hatred against the muslim world. They are responsible for all the world's problems and we will not rest until every last one of them is either killed or converted to our religion.
Or maybe its the other way around... |

You have this backwards.
It was Osama and his friends who attacked the Western world. |

Actually what brought this to mind was that it is also happening in Turkey, a secular democratic Muslim country. I gotta wonder if the secular democratic Christian EU countries are holding up Turkey's admission to the EU because they perceive a latent anti-Christian bias in the society or is it an anti-Muslim bias within the EU itself. But that's a discussion for another day.

Oh? In the past 20 years, Saddam has killed Muslim Iranians, Kuwaitis, Kurds, and other Iraqis. Is a million dead Muslims considered peace? I don't think so.

IMHO, it wasn't about oil or WMDs or spreading freedom or any of the convenient answers by cheerleaders on either side of the issue. I think it was solely about getting rid of Saddam, a troublemaker in the region (see above about killing Iranians & Kurds and so on). The pressure to get rid of him via the food-for-oil process was weakening due to mass corruption at the U.N. (I'll bet they knew about | | |
