America Now Burning Korans In Garbage Piles, In Afghanistan

You have probably deduced, after sort of paying attention to the "War On Terror" for more than a decades, that the "War in Afghanistan" has no purpose whatsoever. This would be incorrect. The purpose of the wars against Afghanistan and Iraq and Libya and Pakistan and Yemen and whatever Islamic countries we forgot to mention is tocreate Islamic terrorists. It's hard work! You need to piss on a lot of dead Afghan soldiers and bomb a lot of kids at wedding parties and, of course, burn great piles of Qurans, in the garbage, if you're going to get four or five dudes riled up enough to try to blow up a mailbox outside an embassy or something.

 From today's Bullshit Gazette :  

The White House is apologizing for the burning of Muslim holy books in a pile of garbage at a U.S. military base in Afghanistan. Press secretary Jay Carney says it’s a “deeply unfortunate incident” and doesn’t reflect the respect the U.S. military has for the religious practices of the Afghan people.

According to the same brief dispatch, the Qurans in question were removed from a gigantic army base's prison library -- America operates vast prisons in Afghanistan, forever -- because the holy books contained "extremist messages." [ Washington Post ]
