I find it amazing.....

Armchair patriots can get so upset about this...."Why this type of reporting is fallacious, dangerous. Even if we are flushing Korans down toilets and it's causing riots....why should the press have free rein?"

My, my. I just can't wrap my brain why this has become such a big issue. And now Rumsfeld is cracking down on anyone who speaks out?

increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to
all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear."

I haven't weighed in on this because I find it offensive. What if the muslims were flushing the Bible down toilets? Is THAT worth getting upset about? Desecrating a Holy Book when the perpetrators don't EVEN LISTEN TO THE WORD WRITTEN in both of them?
"Thou shalt not kill".

Bombs, tanks, machine guns, torture....all them's okay.
Just keep the books out of the toilet............
What a joke.
