Steve, at least Newsweek isn't trying to pass off the story as "fake but true." But I'm sure a lot of ABBers will. Tenchusatsu

Poor Newsweek feels compelled to atone for it's book promoting story which has resulted in 15 deaths... msnbc.msn.com Two pages of of rhetoric and they cannot substantiate their original story.... Let's see if I can help you with your dilemma. The detainees have been saying for at least two years that part of the abuse they sustained was having the Koran corrupted in a number of ways. Then a couple of weeks ago, a gov't official confirmed that this was true.....that he/she had seen a document reporting that the Koran had been submerged in a beaker of urine. Now that there are riots all over the Muslim world and people are dying in those riots and with the US gov'ts' finger up its arse trying to figure out how to calm things down, the gov't official suddenly decides he/she is not clear about what he/she read. And then Newsweek make a sort of retraction. Now, I know you red staters are pretty biased and very protective of your bike-riding president but don't you think just this one time you can read between the lines and see the truth for what it is.
