As usual; TexasHogBoy has all the facts of the case wrong, and leaves out many more that undermines his case.
Let me point out a few...
1. Afghanistan was the country of operations harboring the group that declared war on us.
2. The burning of the koran was an accidenta. Not done on purpose.
3. When the Islamic crazies burn our bibles and flags we do not act in the same way - killing their citizens.

the books were already desecrated; the prisoners were writing messages on pages of the koran. the burning should have been on a less public site.
