Our marines are pissing on their dead bodies - nothing.

Burn a book - all hell breaks out.

And the English called Indians barbarian’s.

[Girlene]

What would/could any of these individuals be charged with under the UCMJ?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

No way.

[OldArmy52]

The Koran burners need claim they thought they were burning Christian Bibles. And thus they would be acquitted and praised by all Parties.

If Christianity was the religion of hate and violence that Islam is, it would not get so routinely spat upon abroad and at home.

[AnTiw1]

we need to take care of america and let the rest of the world go hang

i for one would be willing to pay more for manufactured giids to leave the chinese in the cold too

besides the fact that we need our own factories our own people at work

drill for our own oil and in alaska too

and frankly, if it were up to me, i’d declare islam altogether a clear and present danger to our country and every muslim here gets a one way plane ticket to the muslim theocracy of their choice

every illegal alien haul on a bus across the border unless they want to join the armed forces and earn their citizenship

let the world live in chaos, strengthen and protect our country, and if they bring it to us, we give it back full force nothing off the table

do we have the national will to save ourselves

[xzins]

The violation of some other obscure order or instruction. And there’s always the standard violation of “order and discipline”.

[thethirddegree]

What exactly are the guys who burned the Korans going to be charged with?

Air pollution.

[who knows what evil?]

What exactly are the guys who burned the Korans going to be charged with?

Frivolous use of scarce resources...toilet paper.

[who knows what evil?]

If ever Obama voters were to feel any degree of shame for what they have brought upon our Republic; now’s the time...

IIRC, the reason we “had” to leave Iraq is because we would not allow our personnel to be prosecuted for any alleged crimes.

[Excellence]

But they won't be prosecuted for a violation of our laws, they will be prosecuted for a violation of their sharia laws, which is punishable by death.

[Girlene]

Thanks, xzins. I just don’t see it happening, if for no other reason than this is an election year. obama does not want any trial.

[xzins]

I agree with you. This has become a high profile campaign issue, so Obama will back off.

My understanding of our status of forces agreement in Afghan is that US troops cannot be tried by other than the US system. One of our reasons for early departure from Iraq was the inability to renew the status of forces agreement without making our troops liable to Iraq’s laws.

[Girlene]

obama should have backed off several apologies ago, IMO.

[rbmillerjr]

“The US Congress GAVE NATO permission to tap all
US wire transmissions.”

Find this one hard to believe, even under ObaCommie..

Do you have a link?

[DivineMomentsOfTruth]

It's maddening.. How do we fight this kind of insanity? Justified outrage doesn't seem to have the some clout as Radical Islamic Terrorists outrage.

God Bless our Troops! Thank you for all you do to keep us Free!

[rbmillerjr]

Well, I’m giving FR warning right now...If any US military personnel go to trial for this, I’m driving to DC and burning a Quran right in front of the WH.

[Little Ray]

Personally, I think Islam needs to be culled.

Burn a Koran - slaughter the rioters.
Piss on dead jihadis - slaughter the rioters.
Publish a Mohammad cartoon - slaughter the rioters.
Repeat.

Eventually you get Moslems smart enough to show a little restraint and who understand “peaceable assembly.” Or, in a best case scenario, you run out of Moslems.

[USAF80]

This story sounds kinda fishy to me. Everyone is briefed when they get in-country about customs and courtesies of the host country. The bases would have shredders used for classified materials. These shredders will mangle anything placed in them so you would not be able to tell what it was. If prisoners were using korans to send messages that would be a simple fix just to shred them. You could then burn the sawdust basically.

Even the unclassified shredders do a pretty good job of mangling paper.
