Book report

 ”Bible thumping”

An American soldier used a Quran, the Islamic holy book, for target practice in a predominantly Sunni area west of Baghdad, prompting an apology from the U.S. military, a spokesman said Sunday.

The Association of Muslim Scholars, a Sunni group, condemned the shooting of the Quran, calling it “a hideous act against the book of almighty God and the constitution of the nation and the source of its glory and dignity.”

The incident was first reported by CNN, which broadcast a ceremony at which the top American commander in Baghdad apologized to tribal leaders in Radwaniyah. The military confirmed the details in an e-mailed response to a query.

Would we hear a comparable height of outrage from American scholars if the book was a Bible? I’m sure they’d be upset.

FITNA your future?

Warning: Don’t view during breakfast.

“Fitna” may be viewed here.

Be aware this is a clip not for the faint of heart.

However, a visual of what the Qoran says might clarify how the other side views the war, of which Iraq and Afghanistan are a small part.

Geert Wilders upset the appeasers, perhaps our anti-war readers might have a dose too, if they have the stomach to actually view the other side’s idea of how to fight.
