"Mr Badar, who was released in September 2004 after spending over two years in camp X-ray, recalled that the prison staff used to mishandle the Holy Quran during daily checking of prisoners’ cells."

Oh the horror!!!

[1FASTGLOCK45]

Hey Prisonor, * BIG F"N YAWN!!!!!!!!!*

They are like the neighbors dog that comes crap on the lawn and the neighbor don't care until you crap on theirs. hehehe

[ClearCase_guy]

"Terrorist confirms that millions of Muslims were tortured to death at Gitmo last Tuesday."

[b4its2late]

Another good reason to "take no prisoners".

WHY DID THESE PRISONERS HAVE KORANS IN THEIR POSSESSION?

[RexBeach]

Geezeey, peezeey, now we're quoting former bad guys about their difficult experiences in detainment. Poor babies.

Well Hell's bells, I don't think these guys were locked up 'cause they were members of the local chamber of commerce.

But just ask a Christian in Saudi Arabia how easy it is to go to mass in the open. Or how simple is it to read the bible there. Or to enter the country carrying a crucifix or a religious medal.

These scumbags(detainees)are being given the credibility of cultural heroes by the media. What rot.

[Valin]

Why not?
flame on.

[robowombat]

Actually the prison administration issued a Koran to each prisoner. These are the only printed matter they are permitted to have.

[reagan_fanatic]

“They used to carry daily checking of the Holy Book in every cell by carelessly turning its pages to check that nothing has been hidden inside it,” said Mr Badar

GASP!!!

Oh, the horror!

[Lekker 1]

Besides korans, I wonder what other convenient niceties were provided to them to make their stay enjoyable. Did we provide them with rugs too?...virgins...toddlers?

[FreedomNeocon]

Soooooooooo......

Carbomb in front of young girls school... ok.

Carbomb in front of Mosque... ok.

Making a Seige out of the Church of the Nativity... ok.

Dropping a book, given to a war combatant by us in the first place... HOLY WAR!

(queue the 'Church Lady') -- "Now is that speeeciaaaaal"

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

The fact that something like this is considered worthy of discussion, much less worthy of reporting and making a big deal of, only shows how perilously stupid many among us are. But I can be offended too. You know what offends me? This offends me:

But this is evidently ancient history and a faded memory to the perilously stupid among us, and nothing in comparison to "insensitivity" toward the "religious sensibilities" of terrorist thugs.

How nice of us. I wonder how many of those prisoners have ever even touched a koran before.

“They used to carry daily checking of the Holy Book in every cell by carelessly turning its pages to check that nothing has been hidden inside it,”

These guys are worse than Sen. Voinivich, sensitivity-wise.

[FreedomNeocon]

“Prisoners used to be taken for interrogation shortly before prayers, they were disturbed by soldiers while they were offering prayers and to divert prisoners’ attention during prayers security guards used to play music loudly,” said Mr Badar.


OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[One Proud Dad]

We have to make sure they are able to keep abreast of what their cult literature tells them to do so if they get out they can resume their "worship".

MSM is just determined to give the Muslim world more resolve.

[Roccus]

IIRC we also supply them with prayer rugs.

[Restorer]

I haven't seen anybody comment on the fact that for many centuries the most efficient way to get a pogrom going in Europe was to start a rumor that a Jew had insulted (stabbed, spit on) a Sacred Host.

I guess sometimes these rumors might even have been true.

[MizSterious]

In the first place, so what? In the second place, this is an ex-prisoner with an axe to grind. He'd probably say anything to make us look bad--or do anything to kill us.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

The poor dears. Amputations and beheadings are set for after prayers on Friday.
