Uh, a detainee making an accusation is not the same as "FBI memo reports Guantanamo guards flushing Koran". Unless you are one of those who kneejerk assume a detained AQ member is likely to be truthful.

I wish it were not true, but I believe it probably is... >> a series of other FBI documents it obtained from the government under court order through the Freedom of Information Act. "Personally, he has nothing against the United States. The guards in the detention facility do not treat him well. Their behavior is bad. About five months ago, the guards beat the detainees. They flushed a Koran in the toilet," the FBI agent wrote. "The guards dance around when the detainees are trying to pray. The guards still do these things," the FBI agent wrote. The Pentagon stated last week it had received "no credible and specific allegations" that U.S. personnel at Guantanamo had put a Koran in the toilet.
