I have no idea how many bibles have been burned by crazy people over the years. I do remember evangelical nuts being imprisoned in Middle Eastern countries for bringing bibles into those places. If I was told of a bible burning, I would conclude the burner was a nut. I would not feel compelled to kill innocent people sent to my country to help get us out of the middle ages because some lunatic in Florida with the look of a thug burned a Koran.
The proper response, I think, would be for those Afghani nitwits to burn a bible. Tit for tat. I thought they were good at that. How about all those beheadings and stonings and hands being cut off? Killing innocent people is an indication of just how uncivilized these people we are supposedly helping really are. There is something, I think, deeply, darkly wrong with Islam, some Muslims and Middle Eastern tribe members in general. Constantly excusing this fact is a mistake.
I have no good explanation for why we are fighting in Afghanistan. Clearly, many Afghanis don’t think we should be there. Let’s bring our troops home and let the Afghanis fend for themselves. I’m sure it will continue to be a sad, backward, unlucky place.

Be kind. I'm so old a snide comment might be the end of me!
