A week after the US Defense Department acknowledged that guards at Guantanamo Bay Prison in Cuba defiled several Korans, MK Ahmad Tibi joined Palestinian security detainees and Muslim clerics protesting Tuesday claiming that prison guards at Megiddo Prison in the north defaced the holy book during a routine cell search.

Palestinian prisoners said that following a routine morning roll call, prison guards raided their cells and tents, brutally and violently turning over their belongings. While the guards found 81 cellular phones and 40 knives and other sharp objects during the search, the prisoners claimed the guards ripped up several Korans.

He can't even make up his own original lies. And if any korans were "desecrated," TOUGH. The Muslims have blown up plenty of synagogues around the world, so just call it even.

So there's a big conflict between God's chosen people and the servants of a false prophet at Meggido. It's not like it's the end of the world or anything!

/bizarre sense of irony

Amen to that.

[lilylangtree]

Hahahahaha. When the muslims, like the demoncRATS, find a straw, they beat it to death.

And I heard the guards didn't bow toward Mecca either !

...defiled several Korans...

Note the choice of words. Don't be fooled by its pretense of moderation, the Jerusalem Post is its same old socialist self.

[SlowBoat407]

Did the guards at least wear gloves while they were urinating on the Kqou'''ran?

"brutally and violently turning over their belongings."

Violence and brutality aren't what they used to be.

They found 40 knives , I realise you can make a shiv or knife out of almost any piece of metal , I can ynderstand finding 40 knives. BUT how in the hell did the guards find 80 cell phones? Thats crazy. You cant make a cell phone.

"raided their cells and TENTS???" What tents?

[Brilliant]

Since we are getting blamed for desecrating the Koran anyway, we might as well go ahead and really do it.

[Gefreiter]

Oh the humanity!

We were also inconvenienced- inconveninced, I say!- when we were put in jail int he first place!

/bizarre sense of irony

Exactly!!

[bikerman]

Lets see---2 cans plus string one can in one cell and the other can in another cell = cell phones

[sofaman]

The people complaining about the Koran being "defiled" are the same people that store weapons and weapons caches in Mosques. And the same people that smuggle bomb belts and weapons in ambulances hidden under 7 yr old kids.

You'll excuse if I really don't give a rip.
