Newsweek Says "Oops"
Newsweek magazine apolgized for publishing a story that led to unrest in the Middle East and the deaths of 15 people in a series of demonstration about alleged US actions at Gitmo.
Firstly, they shouldn't be so hard on themselves, it doesn't take that much to cause unrest in the Middle East. I am pretty sure that if Jalal Talabani or Ibrahim al-Jaafari said they received paper cuts while signing documents given to them by US diplomats that all hell would break loose.
WHAT I WANT TO KNOW IS...
the military prison found interrogators "had placed Qurans on toilets, and in at least one case flushed a holy book down the toilet."
WHAT KIND OF TOILET DO THEY HAVE AT GITMO AND HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO GET A TOILET THAT CAN FLUSH AN ENTIRE HOLY BOOK IN ONE SWOOSH! I want one of those!
Oh and, its apparently ok that these assclowns can burn our flag, but what, we can't flush a fucking book down a toilet! Big deal, its a book! And its fiction anyway...or should I say "mythology."
I am sorry but if it meant flushing a Torah down the toilet to show off your powerful flush, I think I'd get over it, I'd be like..."That is soo cool! Can it flush small children? The Boston Archdiocese or Michael Jackson might be in the market for such a throne."
Oh and just a side note... They can flush an entire Quran down the toilet at GITMO and it won't back-up, but god forbid you just look at it funny and the Maine Turnpike is backed up for miles.

Wow! let me guess, you are a Jew.
Yeah, but I don't hide it, its all over the blog. And I'd be a hypocrite if I said it were ok to flush your book and not mine so I did include the Torah reference. Who is this?
