I am not arguing the point. Just as you are not arguing that the apology
was inappropriate. There's plenty of stupidity to go around in this story.

I find it incredibly lazy and simple minded to riot and kill people who
WERE NOT EVEN INVOLVED.
Killing someone over the burning of a book is silly.
But even if it were reasonable, they should have gone after the burners
themselves. Or their bosses.
Rioting and killing random NATO people at NAT
Only the terrorist are upset. Real Muslims don't kill people for
burning desecrated books.

Socialist would make it possible to burn bibles and enjoy doing so,
however they would never allow the burning of a Koran. Odd that.

I also suspect that you are right about the actual soldiers that did the

There are procedures for proper handling and destruction of Korans.
Not that such handling isn't open for abuse either as an individual
soldier's expression of frustration or anger, or as a purposeful psy-ops
tactic.
But, according to the information released so far, the lucky guys that had

hadn't seen that. It does make you wonder why that would not also be
blasphemous. Don't know. Possibly this bit is not being communicated, but
of course, nothing says the uproar has to be rational.
I still say that the US military is supposed to know by now that there is a
protocol for handling a

Doesn't matter why it upsets people -- it does, and the military should
know that by now. Didn't they have some similar problem at Guantanamo? I am
not sure how American military personnel happened to have surplus Korans in
the first place, but anyone who was in a position to dispose of them shoul

OK. How about this hypothetical? You were there. You saw them try to
rob him. He pulls out his gun and shoots them all. Instead of one of
the shots missing, it hits you. Wouldn't be very happy, I don't think.
I know. I know. You will say it is the criminals' fault, which it is,
but the
"That isn't what I said. I said his quick on the draw attitude is what got
him the reckless endangerment verdict, which was appropriate."
You said he was looking to shoot a criminal. I just assumed that you meant
he wanted to shoot a criminal. Couldn't happen if no crime was perpetrated

Back to belittling again. The last resort of the feeble argument.

Funny about Sam and others like him. Consider how they would react if
it had been Islamic soldiers burning a bible in the middle of Kansas
or other part of the bible belt.
Obama's apology was appropriate in this case.

First off, I don't know. More importantly, I don't care. If the
perpetrators didn't commit the crime, it wouldn't have been a problem.

So the Afghans are upset about those Korans being burned to dispose of
them. Some of them are borderline rioting. Now, I understand that they
are really upset about other things and are using the book burning as an
excuse to act like fools, but killing people over it is ridiculous.
