"The United Nations has joined Afghan President Hamid Karzai in calling for disciplinary action against those who burned copies of the Holy Qur’an at a US military base in Afghanistan."

PressTV - UN mission demands punishment for Qur?an burners

Maybe I missed it. But I didn't see anything about accountability/punishment for those who have killed in anti-U.S. retaliation.

NO WAY! Time (way past in my opinion) to get out of Afghanistan and the UN.

So, what about those in other countries who burn our flag? Put up "dolls" of our Presidents and burn them?

It is time we tell the UN where they can stick it.

The UN is a pointless, impotent and worthless organization. Let them take up a piece of land in Pakistan or in the middle east so they can see how they get treated by those they seek to appease.

lmao Syria slaughtering their own citizens, Hadjis murder NATO soldiers and the UN wants to prosecute people for burning terrorist messages. Sounds about right. Time to leave and let them kill each other all they want.

I try my best not to burn so much emotional energy on crap like this, but to say it infuriates me is a vast understatement. If the POTUS had a shred of fortitude, he'd get in front of the TV cameras and rebuke the UN for even requesting such punishment in light of the fact that the Koran's were burnt by accident.

That's the kind of President i'm looking for, and precisely the kind of President we don't have!

Yep. It is time to get out. Not because of this, but because there is nothing else to gain out there.

As for the OP, I would be careful before taking Iranian newspapers for fact.
