American jailers at the Guantanamo prison base for foreign terrorism suspects splashed a Koran with urine, kicked and stepped on the Islamic holy book and soaked it in water, the US Military said on Friday.

US Southern Command, responsible for the prision at the US Naval base at Guananamo bay, Cuba, described for the first time five cases of 'mishandling' of the Koran by US personnel confirmed by a newly completed military inquiry, said officials in a statement.

I do not believe there is even an allegation of urine being "thrown" onto a Koran.

*Yawn*

Boring seditious journalist BUMP.

These traitors are getting tiresome. How much longer before they are dealt with properly? I don't believe there's any shortage of tar and feathers, is there? I'd recommend a "liberal application"...

I guess my question is how do you splash something with urine without first throwing it at it?

As far as I'm concerned we shouldn't allow these terrorists the Koran or prayer rugs. If they were so religious what the heck are they doing in prison? Some think of the Koran as equal to the bible...no way. If these terrorists are so controlled by it, one's got to believe it preaches violence.

They have ALREADY been talking about IMPEACHMENT. Haven't you read or heard about the infamous secret Downing information John Kerry is going to use on Monday before Congress to call for the Impeachment of George W. Bush?

True enough but what about the Terrorist killing Muslims as they go to pray or as they go to the Mosques? They have the Quran with them when they are blown up or maimed. They seem to overlook those facts. Enough of taking up for people who would kill an American quicker than a person could take their next breath.

Thanks !

Click here to see what some Muslims did to a cross in front of the American Embassy in London on May 20th. Gee, somehow I missed the MSM's reporting on the incident.

"And let's face it, Christians sometimes are just as horrible as Muslims are."

I suggest you report to the nearest hospital for a getyourheadoutofyourassectomy. Your comprehension will be greatly improved.

If Rush Limbaugh is right 98% of the time,then this is just another inch down on the road on the way to the impeachment process....they could not defeat Bush in the courts or at the polls so it"s only a matter of time..The left(democrats)must destroy Bush if they ever hope to regain any power.

Who cares? Here's a solution - remove all books from the POW camps.

Well, when it is on fire what is the first thing you do?

BTW, Jay Severin in the Boston talk show market has been saying since 9-11 that if he were an interrogator the tools he would use are ice picks, ball peen hammers, lighter fluid, and matches. His idea of getting useful information would be to light the prisoner on fire, put it out with the ice pick and then tend to business with the business end of the hammer. He was a student of Alan Dershowitz and he said his prof. was in favor of torture when info was determined to save American lives. Isn't it strange when a Democrat liberal is in favor of something like torture we do not here about it in the MSM? Maybe not at all, really.

I have an easy solution to this Koran dilemma. Just take the damn things out. Why do these prisoners get them anyway? do our POWs in Iraq get bibles? How much does a Koran cost? Couldn't we save money by not buying them? I'm sick of this PC crap- bread, water and a hole to pee in is all these scumbags need.
