عاصمة الرشيد

This is not a story that someone made up to encourage young Muslims to go fight in Iraq ... This is a true story that has been corroborated by the US army.

A few days ago, three US armored vehicles accompanied by a Humvee drove to the shooting range near the Police Support Center in ar-Ridwaniyah and put a copy of the Qur’an on a stake. They then proceeded to shoot at it.
After leaving obvious holes in the book, they wrote a filthy English expression on it, left it there, and went away. The American troops carried out their act of desecration in front of the guards of the Police Support Center, where the damaged and defaced book is being kept.

Not surprised at all!! Why should one who has no respect to the iraqis lives have respect to their religion?? What's a worse crime, shooting an innocent bystander or shooting at a sacred book??
