   I have no idea how you take global events. Isn't it simply understandable that if the US could do what they are doing to Muslims then what does the Koran mean to them???
My sincere advice: instead of of indulging in the luxury of great scholarly dialogues we should instead Prepare for Defending ourselves against Amreekan bullying. We should start by using the right title Global Bully. Super Power is just a Hollywood coined term.
Plus BOYCOTT BRITISH & AMERICAN products. They are both training an Iraqi army - TO FIGHT IRAQIS - what elese is PERPETUATING A CIVIL WAR.

	It was former Pakistan cricket captain-turned-politician Imran Khan, who highlighted the Newsweek magazine's report about the alleged desecration of the Quran which led to anti-US rioting in Afghanistan killing 15 people, the weekly reported. "The spark was apparently lit at a press conference held on Friday, May 6, by Imran Khan, a Pakistani cricket legend and strident critic of Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf. Brandishing a copy of that week's Newsweek (dated May 9), Khan read a report that US interrogators at Guant�namo prison had placed the Quran on toilet seats and even flushed one," the weekly said in its latest issue. The report came even as The International Herald Tribune reported that "Newsweek magazine said on Monday that it might have erred in reporting that American interrogators at the Guant�namo Bay naval base in Cuba might have desecrated detainees' copies of the Quran". The latest story in the weekly quoted the former cricketer as saying: "This is what the US is doing...desecrating the Quran." "His remarks, as well as the outraged comments of Muslim clerics and Pakistani government officials, were picked up on local radio and played throughout neighbouring Afghanistan. Radical Islamic foes of the US-friendly regime of Hamid Karzai quickly exploited local discontent with a poor economy and the continued presence of US forces, and riots began breaking out last week," Newsweek said.
