Qur'an Desecration: Far Worse Than Abu Ghraib

alt.muslim: The reports in the media that Americans at Guantanamo facility allegedly desecrated the Qur'an to torture prisoners has unleashed an intense wave of anti-Americanism in the Muslim world, which has already caused 16 deaths. This is worse than Abu Ghraib; Abu Ghraib represents the physical and psychological torture of a few Muslims, Qur'an desecration represents a spiritual, emotional and psychological torture of all Muslims. Even if it turns out that the Newsweek report was false, most people will see it as a cover up and another American attempt to eschew accountability.
