A book on terrorism endorsed and touted by H.R. McMaster, the embattled White House National Security Adviser, calls on the U.S. military to respond to any “desecrations” of the Quran by service members with an apology ceremony, and advocates kissing a new copy of the Quran before presenting the Islamic text to the local Muslim public.
The book’s author further demanded that any American soldier who “desecrates” the Quran be ejected from the foreign country of deployment, relieved of duty and turned over to a military judge for “punishment.”
“Desecration” of the Quran, according to the McMaster-endorsed book, includes such acts as “letting the Quran fall to the ground during a search, or more blatant instances.”
The book, reviewed in full by this reporter, was authored by U.S. military officer Youssef H. Aboul-Enein and is titled Militant Islamist Ideology: Understanding the Global Threat.
McMaster provided a glowing blurb for the book jacket, referring to Aboul-Enein’s book as “an excellent starting point” for understanding terrorist ideology.
McMaster also promoted the book in ARMOR, the journal of the U.S. Army’s Armor Branch, published at Fort Benning, Georgia, where McMaster served as commanding general at the Ft. Benning Maneuver Center of Excellence.
McMaster wrote in his blurb for the book: “Militant Islamist Ideology deserves a wide readership among all those concerned with the problem of transnational terrorism, their ideology, and our efforts to combat those organizations that pose a serious threat to current and future generations of Muslims and non-Muslims alike.”
In the blurb, McMaster revealed his own views on terrorism, claiming that “terrorist organizations use a narrow and irreligious ideology to recruit undereducated and disenfranchised people to their cause.”

I would be court marshaled before touching that vile ....thing.
It that IS true, either McMaster or America (and all of us) ARE DOOMED!
You apparently haven’t been reading the articles at breitbart
I propose we confiscate all the korans, use them as brick with concrete and mortar, and build the world’s largest hog monument.
McMaster should be less concerned about whether someone sh*** on a koran and more concerned about the sh*** that’s written on its pages.
Your assertion is beyond asinine. What hysterical idiocy.
Try to get a grip on reality. There's no evidence to support the notion that President Trump is not his own man. In fact, there's ample evidence to the contrary.
I have three words for you: Paris Climate Agreement. That's symbolic of how much control Jared Kushner and Ivanka have over President Trump.
Until such time as you can support such hyperbole with actual evidence, you should probably refrain from uttering such unfounded nonsense.
With Steve Bannon gone, you seem to be having a difficult time controlling your Trump-bashing impulses. Try not to be too terrified of the big, scary "Jivanka" boogeyman...
Take your blinders off. Anyone powerful enough to orchestrate the sacking of the Chief Strategist is because of a clash of views. NY liberals and Hollywood’s elite to say nothing CNN and MSNB were having a fireworks display of celebration at Bannon’s exit in case you weren’t watching.
Dreamers amnesty? (That was to be repealed on Day 1); China as currency manipulator and export controls on Chinese goods (Day 1); Border Wall (Day 1);
The Chief Stragtegist had already submitted his resignation a couple of weeks ago, and he also made some very foolish comments to that Left Wing rag. It appear much more likely that the Chief of Staff orchestrated Bannon's exit—along with Bannon himself.
Steve Bannon will be much more effective on the outside now—where he can make a public impact. He left maybe 2 or 3 months earlier than he had originally planned—as he had stated long ago. Big deal.
The NY liberals and Hollywood's elite, as well as CNN and MSNBC, were orgasmic and overjoyed at Bannon's exit? You don't say? Well, that certainly is unexpected!
Like I said, no evidence that the Jivanka boogeyman is in control of President Trump. None. Border wall, as you know, depends on Congress, so you're left with "dreamers amnesty" and "China as currency manipulator" as "evidence" that the President is under the nefarious control of Jivanka? As if those two shortcomings could only be attributed to them
Like I said—you're absolutely unhinged—and back to indulging your previous and frequent hand-wringing, #NeverTrump impulses.
Because Steve Bannon has left the administration to return to Breitbart and fight on that front—as he appears to have wanted to do—Jivanka is the President now? That's your claim, just to be clear?
Kthxbye...
Does anyone think that Bannon wasn’t setting the editorial direction when he was gone? I mean, he came back the day he was fired/quit/resigned/was reassigned.
So you are saying that the sainted Bannon was willing to break all sorts of federal laws in order to keep his hand in at Breitbart?
I don’t believe that for one minute
If you do you are missing a few cigs in the gearing
