I don't really understand your point. I never suggested that kicking a book is a _crime_. But I did say that desecrating (kicking, pissing on, tearing up or throwing on the floor) a certain very important book--the Quran--is demeaning to religion, God and other people who follow that religion. It is also (as is now obvious) a potential public relations nightmare.
Think about how angry you probably got when you heard about "Piss Christ." Well the Quran is of at least as great religious significance to Muslims. The U.S. is better than this. The military demeans itself when it acts unprofessionally.
These people think us fools for taking their Koran-beating accusations seriously. Anyone who thinks their book is worth more than a human life is messed up in the head.
