Islamic fanatics decapitated Nick Berg, slit Daniel Pearl's throat, and dragged the corpses of Americans through the streets of Iraq and Somalia. A few Americans, on the other hand, tortured...a book. The Pentagon released information late Friday detailing that a Guantanamo Bay interrogator kicked a Koran, while some prison guards had a water balloon fight that left some prisoners, and their Korans, damp. Oh, the humanity! It turns out Newsweek's story of a Koran thrown in a toilet did occur, only the culprit was a prisoner who despaired that he no loner cared for Islam. I guess it was all a misunderstanding--a misunderstanding that led to more than a dozen deaths in nations where less than half the population can even read the Koran.
I wonder if these same Muslims were protesting when fellow Muslims are throwing grenades into a mosque or using a mosque as a fortified fighting position. Talk about desecration.
It's totally insane. We provide culturally / lureligiously correct meals, feet washing facilities, books, headgear, prayer rugs, arrows in cells that point east and generally kiss their nasty terrorist azzes.
They cut off heads and we're running Gulags.
Messed up man.
Anything to bring Bush and the Republicans down before 08' when the co-President runs for the real deal.
Abu Garib didn't work; Newsweek's phony article didn't work; now they're getting AI in the act and the ACLU is requesting more photos from Abu Garib for anlysis.
Doesn't matter that the Left is bringing our country down in the process.
Classic - Chris Wallace interviewing Amnesty Intern. Executive Director (I see nothing) Schulz:
WALLACE: Now, Secretary Rumsfeld did, we believe, approve putting prisoners in stress positions for prolonged periods of time, stripping them naked and even using dogs to frighten them.
Mr. Schulz, do you have any evidence whatsoever that he ever approved beating of prisoners, ever approved starving of prisoners, the kinds of things we normally think of as torture?
SCHULZ: It would be fascinating to find out. I have no idea...
WALLACE: Well, wait a minute. When you say fascinating to find out, you mean you don't...
SCHULZ: But I do know that what you've just described, the use of dogs, stress position, that constitutes a violation of the convention against torture. That in and of itself is a clear violation.
WALLACE: If I may repeat, sir, do you have any evidence that he ever approved beating any prisoners or starving any prisoners, the kinds of things we think of as torture?
SCHULZ: Amnesty International has never accused him of approving starving of prisoners. We have never suggested that prisoners are starving, Chris. You're bringing something in completely out of the blue that we have never suggested.
We know, however...
WALLACE: You just called him a torture architect, sir."
