An Iraqi man filled a Koran with bacon and burned it in Stockholm on Wednesday, an event that has angered Turkey as Sweden bids to join NATO.

The inflammatory stunt was carried out by two men outside the city's main mosque on the first day of the Muslim three-day Eid al-Adha holiday.

What does that have to do with Sweden?

[No name given]

I hope someone buys that man dinner!

[thegagline]

This is absolutely sick and disgusting. What a waste of perfectly good bacon.

[escapefromboston]

There should neither be an Iraqi nor a Mosque in Stockholm at all.

I am just worried that this man will be killed at the nearest occasion. Very brave man!

The first time I read it, I thought it said "filled a Korean with bacon...

[dynachrome]

Sweden wants to join NATO and turkey must approve. Sweden imported large numbers of muzzie rape-fugees.

[Boogieman]

I just hope the bacon was spoiled, otherwise it was a waste of good bacon, even if I sympathize with his message.

[Boogieman]

Well, if you are going to burn a Korean I guess the least you can do is give him a last meal of bacon first.

[lightman]

+1

Well, maybe it was bacon that was primarily just fat.

We like our bacon with more meat than not.

Was ‘Iraqi man’ a muslem? He actually touched the raw bacon?

[jacknhoo]

Good for him.

[Monterrosa-24]

That is a really long headline.

A lot of Iraqis are pretty laid back about that stuff.

Just one example - my colleagues and I used to take turns escorting our four Iraqi interpreters into the chow hall for breakfast on our little FOB in Baghdad before heading to meet with the Iraqi government officials we were training and assisting in various procurement and contracting initiatives.

The first time I escorted the interpreters in, I watched as they made a beeline for the bacon and load their plates before getting other stuff. “You guys know that’s pork, right?” I asked them.

”Oh yes!” they assured me. “Pork bacon is the best kind.”

”Have at it, then,” I laughed.
