Afghan's Karzai demands public trial for Quran burners
msnbc.com ^ | 2/23/12 | msnbc.com news services

Posted on 02/23/2012 12:03:44 PM PST by ColdOne

KABUL -- Afghanistan wants NATO to put on public trial those who burned copies of the Quran at a NATO base, President Hamid Karzai's office said Thursday, after a third day of bloody protests over the incident.

It said NATO had agreed to a trial, but that could not be immediately confirmed.

Karzai had earlier accused a U.S. officer of "ignorantly" burning copies of the Quran, in an incident that has deepened anti-Western sentiment in a country NATO is trying to stabilize before foreign combat troops leave by the end of 2014.

Demonstrations have drawn thousands of angry Afghans to the streets, chanting "Death to America!" amid violence that has killed 11 people including two U.S. service personnel.

I wonder if Karzai will ever support public trials for those trafficking heroin through his crappy country.

So, some terrorist detainees were using versus from the Koran’s we supplied to them to stir up more terror mindedness amongst the other detainees, quoting from the Koran, and we took them away and sent them to be burned.

The fundis riot and burn, our President apologizes, and now their President want sour people put on trial.

Tell him, and Obama, and anyone who is “embarassed” by this straight where to go.

For Heaven’s sake, we are treating these terrorists that we capture with kid gloves. Like we are somehow the culprits here...and the President of the US is in the forefront of this attitude.

These prisoners should be in solitatiry confinement and subjected to strong interrogation techniques, yes, including water boarding, until we squeeze evey bit of info we can out of them.

Then, under the Geneva convention, as irregulars, they should be summarily executed.

If the populations around there don’t like it and riot in protest and in support of the terrorist enemies, then treat them the same way we treated the German and Japanese populations in World War II who supported the Nazis and the Emperor...meaning we bomb and fire bomb their cities, towns, villages, and huts until they all abjectly surrender and want NO MORE of fundamental Islam.

Until they demand fundamentalists either leave their area or they hunt them down themselves to end our reprisals.

Thats how we defeated the Nazis and the Imperialists and we have had good Germans and Japanese ever since.

It’s past time we created “good” Islamics in the same fashion. That’s, IMHO, how this has to be handled or we will forever be fighting these people because we do not have the will to humble and defeat them sufficiently to produce a disavowal of this wretched, 17th century ideology.

It is time to get the hell out of that Hell Hole. Let them kill each other until the ground is red, but not one more American life.

We lost the war when we burned the Bibles so as to appease the Muslims. It’s time to admit our error and cut our losses.

No more blood for ..... whatever the hell Afghanistan produces.

The ground in Afghanistan has been cursed since the first Muslim set foot on it.

The middle east is a lost cause. they are stoneage barbarians that can’t be reasoned with and they have no ability to think logically. they had it all wrong when they went into these countries in the first place. It was a collosal waste of life, time and money. It’s a black hole of nothingness. limit muslims getting visas into this country. time to get out!

Spray the poppy fields with agent orange and bring our troops home...TODAY.

Sterilize the fields afterward. In the old days, salt was used. Today, I am sure we have something more effective... like a Neutron bomb.

Exactly. We should have left after the punitive expedition phase, and before the meals on wheels phase got started.

Oh, and Hamid Karzai is nothing more than the mayor of Kabul without us. And maybe not even that.

A little education instead of nuclear brain surgery applied in the right locales not so long ago might have made it a bigger mess for all of us in the long run.. but it also might have gotten the job done a lot quicker.. and greatly reduced the likelihood of future reinfestation. who knows, a small nuke at Bora Bora, glaze a few high mountain valleys in Waziristan.. ya never know.. but you can be sure someone will have to pass thru there again.. history repeats itself.. and then some.. this place has been a ‘rhoid on the rump of humanity and then some..

EXACTLY

The MSM have had their orders to not mention the Taliban knowing that this admin and the white house has tried to tell us the Taliban is not the enemy and we should do a prison release for them while they still have an American soldier

AH YES Remember the American soldier who is being held over there by them but the MSM have hardly mentioned it while if it were Bush in the MSM would hammer Bush on why has he not been released.

Last night certain issues about who our allies are and how we helped our enemies and radical islam was exposed and the MSM today have virtually covered it all up like the crap they are

Bring our troops home from this bunch of ungrateful stupid pagan pedophile worshipers. NOT one US soldier's life is worth any of these thugs. Let em rot in their pagan religion.

Ron Paul is right. Time to get out. My only thing is I would drop a nutron bomb on the way out. Paul would only give them a kiss and a wave.

“The error was inadvertent; I assure you that we will take the appropriate steps to avoid any recurrence, to include holding accountable those responsible,” the letter said”

From the article below this one. So the moron says on the one hand inadvertent and on the other hold them responsible. He is a cave in artist. After he loses this election he should go run against Karzai. He’s more at home with them anyway.

The moment Bush changed the name of the operation (Infinite Justice or whatever) was the moment we started losing the war.
