No- you didn't understand what I said at all. I don't support calling people evil OR traitors.

The Newsweek story in the broad was not false--there had been previous reports for sometime in other publications about an investigation into Koran flushing. The Pentagon official who gave the information anonymously to the journalist later became unclear if the story was being looked into in the investigation he thought he had read about it in. And the journalist who wrote the article certainly did not know the story to be false. Yesterday I watched presidential press secretary Scott McClellan take back his statement that it was this story that had caused the riots in Afghanistan, just as General Meyers had stated earlier. There are riots in Afghanistan because the situation in general is deteriorating there. It is much more complicated than a little blurb in Newsweek, the general idea of which was quite accurate.
