| BAGHDAD: U.S. military commanders have apologised to community leaders in Iraq after a U.S. soldier used a copy of the Koran for shooting practice, fearing an outburst of anger among U.S.-allied tribesmen.
Bloody protests have sometimes broken out across the Muslim world when the Islamic faith has been insulted. The swift apology by the U.S. commanders appeared aimed at avoiding similar violence in Iraq.
The U.S. military said on Sunday the soldier, who was not identified, had been disciplined and ordered to leave Iraq after a copy of the Muslim holy book was found riddled with bullet holes at a shooting range near Baghdad on May 11.
Pictures obtained by Reuters showed the holy book with at least 10 bullet holes.
The incident is deeply embarrassing for the U.S. military, which has been working hard to forge alliances with Sunni Arab tribes to fight al Qaeda in Iraq.

| All these religious cults should get down on their motherfucking knees and beg for forgiveness, for insulting the atheist "religion"!
We too are insulted, whenever these degenerate mystics mouth off garbage by the ton-full!
So mystic maggots, respect our "religion" or else!
Motherfuckers! |
