Have we not seen enough of this yet ?>

Kumar, if people want to riot and murder, that's their criminal decision. Blaming somebody else is pathetic but typical of criminals. "He left his door unlocked your honour, so I had to rob him". "She was wearing a short dress, so I figured she was asking for it and deserved to be raped".

Some humans live in a free environment where such barbarisms are normally relatively few. Our lives don't need to be lived to suit some religio-waco maniacs in psychotic places where they kill those who they dislike.

I'm with King George II on that. He didn't blame Newsweek for the murders. He correctly blamed the ideological maniacs who do the murdering. Flushing a Koran is no worse than burning a USA flag. How about the USA nukes Koranic countries which allow people to burn or otherwise denigrate the USA flag? That should be fun. Tit for tat!

Why do Americans have to be so pussy-footing around with the Koran when Koranics don't pussy-foot around with the USA flag, or USA captives, or any captives for that matter, who are regualarly head-hacked, which seems infinitely worse than damaging some book? I'm surprised the USA doesn't tell them to take a hike.

Which isn't to say I advocate either Koran harming or flag burning. But if somebody does either, to their own property, then that's up to them. Provided of course they have resource management act approval [air pollution is a bad thing].
