I take it you've not been to many American Christian churches. Try to tell them the bible isn't inerrant or infallible and see where it goes. The bible IS God to a large number of Christians.
Most would never kill anyone over it, but most Muslims wouldn't either. A lot of people don't seem to understand that moderate Muslims are more hated by the radicals than non Muslims are.
Well this is the UN looking for someone to be punished..not some small group of extreme Muslims.
"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."
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.
I could go along with the UN if we do leave there. This looks like the UN trying to get even with NATO, to me.
I think they have killed many more than a book or two would be worth and they got 2 more today. It is time to take away the weapons of those Iranis being trained by the men they are killing with them. Let the Taliban get even once the weapons are removed and then move out.
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!
Ah. Well, even so, I can see why they would be upset after that one. May I ask for a summary of what happened and/or some references so that I can be informed?
You may be able to get a high ranking job with the UN when they move out of the US.

Personally, I couldn't care less if it was by accident or not. No President of the United States should be appologizing to our enemies! Period.
