This from the Los Angeles Times:
“We’ve got chunks of territory, but these guys (insurgents) are all over the place,” Marine Lt. Brandon Turner said Thursday as he stood amid shattered glass and concrete under the green dome of Al Kalfa mosque, his fellow Marines resting on a plush red carpet.
“They just keep coming at us.”
And here’s the accompanying picture:
Somebody please tell Lt. Brandon Turner that he’s insane, that the Pentagon is insane, whoever is allowing the marines or any American soldiers “rest” on that “plush red carpet” with their shoes, uniforms and machines guns is insane. Does anyone understand anything about religious feelings in general or about Islam in particular? Have they spent even half a day watching a documentary or two about Islam and noticed that people carefully and respectfully take their shoes off before entering a mosque, where they will kneel and put their head on that carpet? (Those “plush red carpets", by the way, are prayer rugs, or"sajjade.” And you don’t step on them with your combat boots, especially inside a mosque, and smile for the cameras unless you really want to fight to the death with up to a billion people.)
Seriously, this is either the most arrogant, incompetent, ignorant occupation, ever, or the most clever, insidious, skillful effort towards bringing about an apocalyptic world war. Are they asleep at the awheel, drowning under their own ignorance, or simply want to end life on earth as we know it?
For those Christians out there, let me sum this picture up in equivalent cultural terms:
Imagine if you saw numerous Islamic terrorists inside a heavily damaged church in America.
Stained glass windows were shattered…
Bibles, pews, and crosses were stacked into a cherry, glowing bonfire…
…and Zarqawi was off in the corner, pissing in your holy water.

Wallahi this is shameful and shows how poorly informed these Americans are. At best one can hope it is their ignorance. At worst, it is complete disrespect and a great affront to all Muslims. I hope my fellow American Muslims will join me and voice their protest in the papers and to their politicians.
I hope so too. I wonder how many American protested and what is the reaction of politicians to what they saw!
Don’t waste your breath, most americans will not understand the significance of this misconduct and they will give many justifications for it.
Believe me, I tried.
Don’t give up!
The Bible, Zephaniah 3:
Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city! 2 She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; [1] she trusted not in the Lord; she drew not near to her God. 3 Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the morrow. 4 Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law. 5 The just Lord is in the midst thereof; he will not do iniquity: every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame.
6 I have cut off the nations: their towers [2] are desolate; I made their streets waste, that none passeth by: their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant. 7 I said, Surely thou wilt fear me, thou wilt receive instruction; so their dwelling should not be cut off, howsoever I punished them: but they rose early, and corrupted all their doings.
8 Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the Lord, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, [3] that they may all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve him with one consent. 10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.
11 In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain. 12 I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the Lord. 13 The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
