Savage read this on his show today and ended the segment by say "We have officially lost the War on Terror".... unfortunately, I tend to agree.

James Lileks said this yesterday:
I can imagine in late 2001 asking a question of myself in 2005:

What’s 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.
