What I read was that they were part of a bunch of confiscated stuff that contained bomb parts or the sort.

From what I heard, some of the inmates had scribbled anti-American sentiments in the margins.

Burning is actually one of the proper ways to dispose of a holy book in Judeo-Christian tradition, the other being burial. The problem is that the Korans were apparently burned along with other trash, which is a pretty major no-no.

Most of the articles seem to be "Americans burn Korans, justifying Afghan riots, and killings"

a damn Afghan soldier just shot and killedtwo American soldiers over this

and the president had to apologize.

im getting to the point where even i am getting to the opinion of just pulling out and letting them collapse and be subjugated by the Taliban again.

and if they build a single terrorist camp, just carpet bombing the whole damn country. every time.

My nephew almost wrote in my Bible the other day, I'm glad he didn't because the only appropriate response would have been to riot.
