“Despite an apology from U.S. President Barack Obama.”
Correction: “Because of an apology from U.S. President Barack Obama.”
Worst thing he could do. What is the correct way to dispose of a desecrated Koran? I believe it is to burn it. Burning is the proper way, just as it would be with any other object of respect, such as an American flag.
These Korans were already desecrated by terrorist prisoners, who wrote in them—which is not permitted. Probably the Commander should have asked a Muslim Cleric to preside over the burning, but I don’t believe that is required.
Obama should have said that those Korans were already desecrated, and they were burned out of respect for Islamic law and tradition. I’m sure he understand that, having been raised as a Muslim himself.

It was explained the other day that it’s supposed to be wrapped in pure, clean cloth and then buried where no one will walk & step on it.
