Did you see Dick Cheney on LKL last week? He cracked that marvelously impish crooked smile after he had revealed what Hamid Karzai had told him and President Bush during Karzai's recent state visit.

Cheney said, "When the Koran flushing Newsweek story was heard in Afghanistan, an angry mob attacked the Afghan Cultural Center in Jalalabad and burned it to the ground. Inside of the cultural center were 400+ rare copies of "the holy Koran,"........."So," Cheney concluded with his wry smile, "They destroyed over 400 rare copies of their own sacred Koran, just because they thought that one mass produced copy had fallen into a toilet half-way around the world!"

Cheney's comment does kinda put the whole thing in perspective.

I noticed the media was very quiet about that event too.

"When the Koran flushing Newsweek story was heard in Afghanistan, an angry mob attacked the Afghan Cultural Center in Jalalabad and burned it to the ground. Inside of the cultural center were 400+ rare copies of "the holy Koran,"

Insanity expressed.
