Concha' know the terrorists are usually a different brand of Moslem than their victims, so they just write it off to "false Korans".
Like this?
According to the secularists the US Constitutions contains the clause about separation of the Church from state, but there is nothing about the Mosque!
Didn't the Wermacht uniform include belt buckles inscribed with "Gott mit uns"? Though, of course, they are no longer our enemy.
I think we should all remember that this pussy-footing around Muslim sensibilities is part of a divide and conqueror strategy. We will need Muslim client governments to keep order in the Muslim world while suppressing Islamism. If this is to be done right, they will need to have a popular mandate from the vast majority of Muslims who (according to the dominant Hanbali school of Koranic intepretation, of which Wahabbism is simply an extreme variant) are 'bad Muslims' for not taking jihad as literal warfare seriously.
It does not help our cause in this regard to needlessly inflame Muslim sensibilities by ill-treating or permitting ill-treatment of their holy book. In this regard, it must be remembered that the Koran occupies a place in Muslim piety which combines the places occupied for traditional Christians by the Bible and the Sacraments. I should not be at all suprised if the Chaplains' Corps has regulations requiring proper conduct with regard to the Sacraments of any of the Christian confessions represented in the Corps, and indeed would be surprised to find the contrary.
I realize many on FR advocate a strategy against Islam as a whole which mirror-images the classical Islamic position vis-a-vis kufir: convert or die. Such a strategy is however, immoral, inhumane, and impractical.
So long as all of the Muslim world has not risen against us as al Qaeda hoped would happen in response to a ham-fisted response to 9/11 (which never materialized, as instead George W. Bush became only the third leader in history to conqueror Afghanistan), the divide-and-conqueror strategy requires us to observe formal 'niceness' toward Islam and things Islamic generically, even as we hunt down and kill any Muslim actively pursuing jihad against us or any other civilized power.

Interesting that you should bring that up. Hitler was actually decidedly anti-Christian and part of his agenda (spelled out in detail in Mein Kampf) was to supplant Christianity with a new state religion based on a combination of socialist ideology and teutonic pagan ritual.

They should be replaced with translated tear-proofed copies of 'A Patriots History of the United States' and other such appropriate works.
This is so stupid, we are trying to fight the war the PC way. I'm a loyal Savage listener although I have disagreed with him on how the War on Terror is being "Vietnamized" but I'm afraid with this, he is right and I am wrong. Maybe I'll be accused of Abu-Garab tactics but I'd never give these guys the Koran and they would wat what's on the menu of the day or they will do without for that day.
I'm gonna nitpick here. Muhammed didn't "write" the Koran because he was illiterate and the Koran was not put to paper until at least a century after his death. The official story is that Muhammed recited verses that were "revealed" to him, but the evidence suggests that he made it up as he went along.
If you can stomach it, I stronly recommend that you acquaint yourself with Islamic scripture. It is the ugliest body of literature in the history of humankind (on a par with Mein Kampf IMO) and we will not defeat our enemies until we fully understand their motives, their goals and the depth of depravity that they regard as proper behaviour.
Tell me how allowing Wahabists to build Mosques, Islamic Centers and buy up huge tracts of US rural property for their so called summer camps..
Or how the funding of lobbying political buy off machines like CAIR by Wealthy oil Wahabists from Saudi accomplishes this
'Divide and conquer' strategy?
It's right up there with the war on terror stragegy of leaving our borders wide open..
Handing Israel to the Palestinians along with billions of
tax payer dollars
And CAFTA

And his god was closer to Allah than to the true God.
How do the Islamofascist reconcile the fact that the God they call the Koran is printed on paper, which comes from trees, which is apparently printed somewhere, and that along that process some INFIDEL probably handled the material. Are Muslims stupid or what.
Wouldn't it be hilarious if they were found to be printed by some Jewish printing company in New Jersey?
I can imagine in late 2001 asking a question of myself in 2005:
Whats the main story? The smallpox quarantine? Fallout from the Iranian Israeli exchange contaminating Indian crops? A series of bombings in heartland malls?
"Well, no the big story today has to do with soldiers mishandling terrorists' holy texts at a detention center."
Mishandling? How? Like, you mean, they opened it up without first checking to see if it was ticking, and it blew up?
"No, they handled it in a way that disrespected it. Infidels are supposed to use gloves."
Oh. So we lost, then.
HEHE....my thought was a printing company in Israel. ah what irony that would be. Maybe the U.S. military can tell us where the Korans (Gods) are printed that they so disrespectfully handle come from.... NJ sounds like a good place.
I won't hold my breath expecting them to raise such a concern about any non-Christian religion.
