Why does this Koran-pissing story have such legs?
Am I the only one having problems generating a whit of sympathy for a group of people who (or at least a very high percentage of whom) come from a culture that celebrates burning the american flag?

I don't care that much, because religion is crap, but I think it's the desecrating the Koran as a way of trying to get information out of imprisoned people. Plus our country is pretty religious as a whole, and people may be projecting what they would feel about someone pissing on the Holy Bible or something. Again, like I give a shit, but I think it's a combo of using desecration as a questioning technique and the wacko religious right double standard.
Why was a Marine peeing around a prisoner, anyway? I'm just curious. Water sports?
