He shouldn’t be shooting that cult book in Iraq but it should be banned in the United States.

Whatever you think of the Koran, openly defiling one in a country where we’re trying to get people on our side is extremely dumb.

In all fairness, if Iraq were here removing violent, extremist Christians from our neighborhoods then used the Bible as a target, you’d all be screaming for an explanation and apology as well.
Seriously, the inability for some of you to think outside your personal space is rather unsettling.

Granted, but that nasty book reads like "Mein Kampf."
The chapters about killing Jews and non-muslims are especially disgusting.
The bottom line is that there are many non-PC Soldiers in the ranks today, and we are seeing what happens to them.
They get into deep excrement the instant they demonstrate any behavior outside of the politically correct crap being shoved down our throats.
It's all in keeping with the "Islam is a Religion of Peace" LIE.
The Army is fast becoming the last place a non-PC American should find himself.
Can you imagine General Patton being forced to kiss "Mein Kampf" during his apology ceremony to the Nazis?

If they were here doing that, it would be toooooo late to SCREAM.

Seriously, you should have the PC removed, and soon.

I don’t think what he did was too bright. I am wondering if he did it to get out of Iraq.
I don’t think this was a political incorrect incident, it was stupidity. He doesn’t realize how much damage this could have cause and the additional lives he put at risk because of it.
There would be people here on FR who would be upset if a Bible had been used for target practice.

Okay, but you are missing the point about the apology ceremony and the begging of forgiveness.
I still can't quite picture General Patton begging for forgiveness of the Nazis and giving "Mein Kampf" a big, fat smooch and kneeling.
