Gitmo

So, let me get this straight, the White House accuses Newsweek of inciting riots and causing deaths because of one sentence in a brief report suggesting that the Koran was flushed down a toilet in our favorite Gulag. Now, the report comes out from Southern Command and, indeed, the Koran was desecrated with urine and other activities clearly designed to humiliate the Muslim detainees.

But no, OH NO, it was not flushed.
On March 25, a detainee complained to guards that "urine came through an air vent" and splashed on him and his Quran.

In the March incident, as described in the report, the guard had left his observation post to go outside to urinate. The wind blew his urine through an air vent into the cell block.
Excuse me, urine in the air vents? Well, those frat boys will be boys. But, the important point here, Jack, is that it was not flushed.

And we have some other college pranks:
In another confirmed incident, water balloons thrown by prison guards caused an unspecified number of Qurans to get wet...
Please explain to me what is going on here.

I am willing to lay some money on the silence of the Lambs (Scotty and the boys). We will see.
