A female Palestinian security prisoner in Ashkelons Shikma Prison tore up pages from a copy of the Quran and threw them toward the toilet during a routine search Sunday, the Israel Prison Service said.
The 22-year-old detainee from a village near Hebron is an Islamic Jihad member who was arrested three months ago in suspicion of hostile terror activity.
She resisted a routine search by a female guard, and then took out torn Quran pages from her skirt and hurled them toward the toilet.
The guard handed the torn Quran pages to the prisons director, and Prison Service officials said she showed heightened sensitivity to the holy Islamic book.
Security prisoners are permitted to keep Qurans, and the Prison Service provides them with the books, but tearing pages out of the book and throwing them in the bathroom is blasphemy and hinders the prisoners right to conduct religious rites, a Prison Service official said.
The Palestinian prisoner was eventually transferred to the Hasharon Prison as planned.
A month ago Palestinian security prisoners detained in the Megiddo Prison claimed prison guards tore up pages from Quran copies during searches of their cells.

So what was the excuse for their 9-11 brethren drinking alcohol and partying in strip bars in the days prior to their attack? It could well be that, if you see muslim women eating during any given muslim religious period (no pun intended), they just want to stuff their faces. Don't forget Occam's Razor.

So each time you see a Muslim lady who is not fasting, you can visualize the reason why. ewwww... Now I'm fasting, too, you really wrecked my appetite! ;)
So, the solution is obvious here, this woman should be given a full pardon, and a public release on the streets. Problem solved.

Give her another quran, secretly videotape her tossing it in the toilet, hack into Al Jazeera's feed and put it on throughout the Mideast.

She resisted a routine search by a female guard, and then took out torn Quran pages from her skirt and hurled them toward the toilet. I take this to mean the pages didn't make it "through the hoop." Too bad she throws like a girl. ;o)
