So we burned some Qurans

[Slowhand]

I think you just blew some peoples minds.

Easy with the word "blew." They might extrapolate "blowjob" out of that, and their boy Rick Santorum would rather those sinful things be illegal. And even he would probably have a bit of an issue with American servicemen setting Qurans ablaze. Because even as ass-backwards full on retarded as he is, he's still probably not afflicted by sociopathy to the degree that the board members here are.

These are the same fuckwads that allowed the systematic destruction of every Buddist symbol in their backward ass country. Call it even and move the fuck on.

If you think this course of action started with Obama you're fucked in the head.

If you think I can't tell you exactly when it started you're fucked in the eye socket.

Try Korea when they fired MacArthur or when they stopped Patton from invading Moscow. We've been pussified every since, and amazingly enough we haven't won a war since either.

We need to stop being politically correct pussies. Take flamethrowers to the whole damn place and tell the UN to piss off.

If you aren't willing to do that then go the fuck home.

Anything else is a complete waste of dollars and time and lives.

Either be willing to win a war or don't be in one.

Burning Qurans is really advancing the mission over there. If you do shit that's blatantly dumb then your ass is going to get burned, even if it is a gross overreaction. It didn't serve a purpose other than to incense a populous of people that already don't like you, and all it does is proliferate a vicious circle that makes the situation worse.

Justifying it with tears about ragheads burning bibles is beyond childish. Ya'll are always going on and on about our military forces being a cut above the rest; if you want that moniker to stick in the minds of anyone that isn't you, then servicemen should probably act like it. Shit like this makes them look dumb, ignorant, and juvenile; even if it's a minority, it's an extremely visible minority and the people who can see that for themselves aren't the people shooting at them.

TLDR: is this a largely insignificant event that's been blown up by the media? Sure. But that doesn't make it right and it only sets our mission over there further back.

It wasn't ragheads burning the Bibles that I mentioned. It was the US military.

Boom, game set match....

[ram57ta]

Wouldn't it be great if a large cluster of meteors fell from the sky and just happened to completely remove the entire REGION....or if someone would accidentally detonate several LARGE thermonuclear firecrackers over there. They've been fighting for how many thousands of years? It would be nice to wake up one day NOT having to hear about Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, or Iran for once.

[SMEGMA STENCH]

In before someone bitches about bibles being burned.

In before libtard who thinks violent aggressive religion is fine, but attacks passive/peaceful one. Oh wait I'm too late.

I realize you've probably never took part in a massive logistics operation such as Bagram AFB, but it's very easy that the military reasoning is true and this was all a mistake. And mistakes happen, that doesn't make anyone dumb, ignorant, and juvenile...especially with such a large scale operation over here.

P.S. I just want my showers back.

[SMEGMA STENCH]

Yeah I'm far too lazy to actually read up on this, but from what I've heard on the radio, it sounds like some korans got burned during some sort of... upheaval. So, every koran that got burned over there due to war is overlooked, but not this time.

[no4njnk]

And now 4 US soldiers dead. Pussification complete

Especially when you're just some tired ass troop detailed with some clean up some where. You're just checking for classified marking or following orders to throw some box in a burn pile.

It very well could have been very innocent.

One girl's apology to President Karzai. Most excellent.

[gip99gt]

Sounds like just another good reason to leave as quick as we can.

We can't leave there are weapons of mass destruction that have to be uncovered. RIP to all the fallen soilders in a police act type war.
