How Fucking Stupid Do You Have to Be?

To do something like this:

An American soldier used a copy of the Quran for shooting practice.

Imagine, if you will, that a Muslim soldier had gone into a church, taken down the image of Christ on the Cross, and then used that for target practice. You would hear no end of the outrage from people such as that Republican toady who is the head of the Catholic League, who, I will bet if he were asked about this incident, would call it "no big deal."

"Disciplined," yes indeedy. Sending someone home from Iraq, now that's punishment.

Stupid shit like that makes it clear that the U.S. Army is an army of occupation. That's the sort of act one expects from an occupier whose task is to place a boot on the neck of the locals and press them to the ground. That's not the act of a friend or an ally.

Stupid shit like that gets people killed.
