After reading about the absolute horror of the Koran "maybe" being flushed down a toilet I was just forced to bring to their attention a few things they did. They don't seem to have a problem desecrating other peoples religions..can any one say hypocrite?????? 1. Dececration of Josuas tomb 2. Destruction of the buddish statues in Afghanistan this is a lovely article outlining their hypocrisy http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=44303
what do u think an\bou desroying a whole country and destroy the futures,, dreams and the childhood in the eyes of children every thing,, what do u think is more violant,,, destroying status,, that have no hearts no feels nothing,, just a shape,, or destroying ur home or human from flesh and blood,,,
I think you dont understand the topic of this thread. this thread was started to point out the fact that on numerous occasions the islamic people have distroyed others religious icons and material yet you condone that. How can you fain outrage over the desecretion of your materials and do the same to others. The 2 items that I pulled out of the story such as Josephs tomb's distructions and the distruction of the Buddihst Staues happend "BEFORE" we went into Iraq. Where is your outrage at Sadam Husien?? Didnt he kill hundreds of thousands yet the islamic community is upset that a "ENGLISH" not US paper printed pictures of him in his underware. I dont understand a group of people that are willing to kill and distroy in the name of thier religion and yet expect the rest of the world to stand by and let them do it. You expect to be treated with reverence and compassion yet you in no way have shown to be willing to do the same. I am not talking about you inparticular but as a group if you dont condemn what they do than you condone it. In case you and the rest of the Arab world hasn't noticed the people of the US dont always agree with what our gov't does and when we dont we protest and dispay or diespleasur "WITHOUT KILLING OTHER PEOPLE OR DISTROYING OTHERS THINGS" Think about it and try to be the "tolerant" religion you say you are.......
Yet you are offended at the FALSE ACCUSATION that a book was mishandled, no problem that 17 or more died and scores injured.
Arabian, As others here have stated well...you are comparing two different topics. The Muslims who killed 17 people in Afganistan recently claimed that they were not angry about war, children being killed, lives being destroyed. They claimed that their outrage and violence was justified because a news magazine had written a small article claiming that a Koran had been flushed down the toilet. They killed 17 people people people someone completely unrelated to those people, thousands of miles away, had done something they didn't like. THIS is what we are talking about....that Muslim extremists have been desecrating the sacred sites of other religions for years and those religions have not been sending people to kill Muslims....yet a small story leaks out and Muslim fanatics use it as an excuse to kill people and declare jihad. And you come here and try to whitewash it by pointing in the opposite direction....
It is an oversimplification to say that the riots were caused by the Newseek story. In fact both Gen. Meyers CJCS and the American ambassador to Afghanistan stated clearly that the story was *not* the cause. The cause is much more likely to be the widespread instances of torture and degradation of Muslims in the hands of the U.S. government. Several hundred detainees from Guantanamo, for example, have been released and gone back to their own countries where they have appeared on TV describing their mis-treatment. Unfortunately, the mis-treatment is all too real and has been acknowleged by the U.S. government. The same is true of the desecration of the Koran. The administration does not deny that such incidents occured; it says policies were put in place to stop it and that desecration no longer happens. Not quite the same thing. I do not personally support the destruction of the Buddahs in Afghanistan; in fairness, we Christians have a history of iconoclasm of our own. I am very, very sceptical about allegations of desecration of Biblical sites because such an act would be blasphemous for any Muslim. As an example: the main mosque in Damascus, Syria, is so old that it was originally a Roman temple. It was then a Christian church dedicated to John the Baptist, whose tomb is its main feature. The building was converted into a mosque centuries ago. The tomb is still the main feature and has been revered by Muslims for centuries. When Christians captured the great mosque in Cordoba, Spain, they destroyed all the copies of the Koran. Muslims do not destroy the holy book of the Prophet Jesus, peace be upon him!

They drank the holy wine, destroyed statues, crucifixes, bibles, the alter, and other holy artifacs .
