The US State Department said on Tuesday that the Pentagon was looking into a report in Newsweek magazine that interrogators at the prison camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, kept copies of the Koran in toilets to annoy prisoners.

Can you imagine all this brou-ha-ha if during WWII it was discovered that U.S. GI's were keeping copies of Mein Kampf in latrines? Horrors!

The [Human Rights Watch] report, titled Black Hole: The Fate of Islamists Rendered to Egypt, identifies 61 people who have been transferred into Egyptian custody since 1994

Just 61 in 11 years? That's all? BFD.

Mein Kampf was/is not a religious text. Big difference.

What is going to happen when they learn that I use pages of the Koran to wipe my ass everyday? That I fart toward Mecca should really drive them off the edge.

Let me fix the title.

Newsweek is responsible for 2 dead and 47 wounded in Afghanistan.

Mein Kampf ? Not quite the same as a "sacred document" revered by millions. After all the trouble to avoid even the appearance of this conflict being a "holy war", this kind of religious insult was needlessly reckless. My opinion.

I wonder if those on this thread making light of this would have similar feelings of joy if the bible or torah was used in the same way.

Well Newsweak is at it again.

These fruitcakes (Newsweak) do not understand that the crap printed in these anti-American rags is fed to these ignorant Moslem's and they believe anything lock stock and barrel.

Received a call from my son this morning from J'bad and he absolutely insists no US soldiers involved in any of this unlike reported by Fox and others that American soldiers are shooting up the crowd. Soldiers have not left the PRT.

This is total propaganda fluff.

Yet the MSM are COMPLETE AND TOTAL SUCKERS for this.

CNN, the alphabets, MSNBC, and even Fox Reporters and Reporterettes expose their light weight brain power by reporting this seriously.

In that part of the world the Christian Bible is ILLEGAL and WILL be destroyed upon confiscation.

I think we should start rioting every time a Muslim kills a Christian; take Sudan for example.
