Koran "Mishandling"
Posted on 05/27/2005 9:24:17 AM PDT by CHARLITE
First it was the Los Angeles Times who published the “Koran flushing story”, after the Newsweek story had been discredited. In an apparent attempt to help Newsweek find some of its lost credibility (and to take their own swipes at the US Military), now the rest of our leftist mainstream press has decided to print additional “Koran mishandling” stories. Hey! If a story is fake continue to print it, or other similar ones, so that maybe some of the uneducated will begin to believe them.
Relying on a 2002 FBI report, notably one which merely referred to “allegations from detainees”, our MSM is “reporting” the story as 1. if it were true and 2. if it were new. And this latest attempt at America-bashing is being coordinated with…guess who? Why, the ACLU of course! Anytime the MSM and their old pals at the ACLU can double-team to attack the country, they accomplish their task with both unabashed glee and great vigor. Just a few members of the MSM that published this story (resurrected from their dungeons) are The Washington Post (of course), the Seattle Times, CNN (was there ever a doubt?) and ABC News. However, it never ceases to amaze me that these secular (AKA atheist) organizations that vilify Christianity on a regular basis, appear to embrace Islam…a “religion” that vows to kill them too! Perhaps the old adage that atheists are actually suicidal really is true.
Now the leftist press has reduced its horrific allegations to “mishandling” the Koran. Apparently, if one doesn’t use white (or is it some other color?) gloves to touch it or places the book in some area not approved by radical Islam, an unpardonable sin (often resulting in death) is committed. I’m not even going to question Islam on this. From what it has already shown the world, its followers will riot, kill and maim at the drop of the proverbial hat. But, what I do question is the overall intellect, integrity and sincerity of the country’s press. The mainstream press tries its hardest to print every conceivable negative and defamatory article about Christianity (even calling portions of the Bible “hate speech”), while it expresses “deep concern” about the Koran; a book that commands the murders of Jews and Christians. By the way, MSM, the Koran also calls for the murders of all unbelievers…that means you. But, for a group that appears to be patently unconcerned about its own members’ lives, I suppose the MSM’s actions are to be expected. The fact that we have even given the detained Islamic prisoners Korans speaks highly of the United States of America. Do you think a Christian would be given a Bible or a Jew the Torah in a Muslim prison? Not only would they not be given their holy books but, they would be (more than likely) beheaded before they could read them.
This column is neither meant as an attempt to reeducate our mainstream media nor is it an effort to convince them to be more equitable in their treatment of all religions. They have already told us that it isn’t possible. Their hatred of the US military, President Bush and all traditional Americans (IE those who would like the USA to remain sovereign and intact) has inexorably blinded them to truth. The MSM’s actions are simply the inevitable conclusion to their rage. However, I believe it important that “we the people” stay informed of their tawdry endeavors to discredit the country; in each and every way possible. As long as they continue to cheapen themselves, in their attempts to further malign the US and its people, I and others will continue to reveal their tactics and schemes. It’s essential that we do.
For your interest.
Only during GOP administrations.
First of all, a Christian is not allowed to have a Bible even when not a prisoner.
D'OH!
Who decided that muslims were to be given q'rans and even a hint of the direction to mecca? Without precise knwlege, the idiots would never get the direction right.
They are prisoners of war, and have no rights to anything!
Any member of the MSM who wants pictures of koran desecration can stop by my place on the Fourth of July. I'll even serve them hot dogs. (No reporter can turn down free food.)
The MSM and the ACLU have clearly stated that they would like an Islamic States of America. They defend everything Islamic and condemn anything that has to do with Christianity and Judaism and the defence of our country. It wouldn't surprise me if they would recommend that it is constitutional to behead Christians before too long.
Using the Koran to wipe one's butt is a terrific idea.
Well at least now we know why they dig the Koran so much
First: how does one "flush" a 1000-page tome down a toilet. Mine gets stuck with just a few extra sheets of toilet paper!
Second: The lefty press loves it when U.S. taxpayers have to pay for displays of crucifixes in urine, or images of the Blessed Virgin surrounded by elephant dung.
One would think they'd love the artistic value of a Koran in the toilet.
The Koran is like Hillary Clinton.
You are not allowed to look directly at it or face the consequences.
Yesterday an infobabe on tv described what the 5 soldiers had done to the Koran as " touching inappropriately."
I am not making this up.
You know I think the reason the the MSM tiptoes around the Koran is because they are afraid that if they don't they will be killed. Also I think they believe that if they place Islam above all other religions that they think they will be spared if Islam ever does take over.
Koran "Mishandling"
Why the different treatment?
Liberals think they are highly intelligent if they can offend the most people -- and to show great concern and compassion for that which nobody cares about.
The MSM & MSP have done more to hurt America and Americans than the al-Qaeda, in fact they are the flag bearer for that group of terrorists and all other terrorists. Now they join with the ACLU, the Communist Party of the USA and most of the Democratic Party to replace Christianity with Islam. As long as Political Correctness is de rigueur for politicians, school teachers, and judges, it will be easy.
There are only a few newspapers and reporters anyone can trust. Bloggs are winning the war for Truthful News.
Now with softer, perforated pages! Koran-Wipes!
Thanks for the ping!
What do they want? We have to lovingly, reverently, with kid gloves handle the Koran, to their satisfaction, which is never satisfied no matter the measures taken, when they have their eyes peeled for the tiniest manufactured infraction? Have they been to a bookstore lately? The Koran editions are often stamped with discount stickers and stacked on shelves or tables or the floor.
The Korans touched the floor?
Then they have to burn down the building.
