Carney Apologizes Profusely On Behalf Of Obama Admin For Military Burning Korans…

Shockingly, the non-stop apologies haven’t stopped them from rioting.

(LA Times) — The White House apologized Tuesday for the apparent mishandling of Muslim holy books at a military base in Afghanistan, calling the episode a “deeply unfortunate incident.”

“It does not represent the views of our military,” White House press secretary Jay Carney told reporters. “And it certainly does not represent the conduct of our men and women in uniform or our general respect for the religious practices and beliefs of the Afghan people.”

U.S. officials are trying to limit the fallout from news that the books, including Korans, were being burned inside the base. Laborers working at the Bagram Air Field found books and brought them outside, sparking protests.

Carney echoed the apology of Gen. John Allen, U.S. commander of coalition forces in Afghanistan, who quickly condemned the “inappropriate disposal” and emphasized that it was inadvertent.

Carney said the incident is under investigation “to understand what happened and to ensure that steps are taken so that incidents like this do not happen again.”

    Maybe they would stop rioting if we let them chop off Carney’s head? It’s worth a try.

    He better not be trying to apologize for me.

    I’ll go out and buy a Koran just say I can burn it.

  3. codekeyguy says:

    Sorry, folks, but burning korans is akin to burning comic books, or fiction novels. It was written by a pedophile in the 7th century, and its readers are still in the 7th century. Burning them is an act of mercy.

    okay, so they didn’t bury them at sea.

    but they didn’t humiliate, ravish and slaughter them in broad daylight in the face of the world like Qadaffi either, did they? blip

    We can’t cuss around them ,we can’t fart around them, we can’t drink around them, we can’t piss towards Mecca, we can’t look at their wimmins, we apologize for mistakenly burning some Qooorans (ratted out by local labor that we undoubtedly pay, of course)….

    In summary, we must be them…and convert.

    I have a better idea. Shut the fuck up and quit taking our money and help if you don’t want it. And the next time you kill a Christian or Jew get what you deserve – pure hell on earth.

    Fucking hypocrites.

    In fundamental Islam,an apology is seen as weakness.

    Muslims only become more emboldened when they can make infidels more sharia compliant.

    They only tolerate us in Afghanistan because of the money we poor down their insatiable rat hole of a country.

  14. Teacake says:

    From what I understand, beside obama being very unhelpful to Israel being able to buy necessary weapons to deal with this… that even Bush admin wouldn’t sell them what was necessary.

    Experts in Islam say copies of the Koran should be buried or released in flowing waters if they need to be disposed of, and burned only as a last resort.

    Urination on the koo ran is considered flowing water.

    Remember their reaction, and what they did in the streets after the Twin Towers fell?

    That incident offended people from many religions.

    It is obvious that they only care about themselves and what they can do to gain attention.

    Carney please. We all know you are much more intelligent than this.

    Didn’t the military recently burn Bibles that had been, God forbid, shipped to iraq.
    Muzz sensibilities were insulted and the Bibles had to be torched.

    Was there an apology for that from the o-hole regime.
    No. . . . .

    *crickets*

  30. Dapandico says:

    “Amazing, the Koran can bring a superpower nation to its knees.”

    No, only pussy politicans are brought to their knees. The vast majority of the Good Ole People would tell the muzzie whiners to get fucked.

    Isn’t burning one S.O.P. ? I mean, WE are over there because they haven’t learned basic manners of civility and now THEY’RE calling the shots?

    Naw, something’s wrong with that.

    Better to torch it before it becomes a crime here.

    It could be better to leave Carney on his knees until the “most placating sacrifice” has been determined. Might take days but IIn something will be found for him to do at his level.

    I bought a Koran and thought about burning it, but I was always told not to destroy books so it sits on the shelf with a piece of oscar meyer bacon sticking out of the top of the book which I use as a book marker.

    I figure I will hold onto it for a while. You never know when a terrorist may show up at my house and I can read him a verse or two while he finishes bleeding out on my floor from the multiple gunshot wounds.

  42. crudcutter says:
    February 21, 2012 at 9:29 pm

    What does anyone expect from goat boy and the Kenyan? What else were they burning? American histories? Biographies of the founders? Reports about what a waste of money it is trying to turn a 3rd century tribal shithole like Afghanistan into a 21st century democratic society.

    Spike the cannons, disable the vehicles, destroy everything that we can’t carry, pack up the essentials and leave.

  43. crudcutter says:

    I am simply shocked by the insensitive remarks that I have read about this beautiful Holy Book and the peaceful religion it represents…rather than shooting off our mouths at a people and religion that is benign…we should be out making contact with muslim people…visiting their mosques and schools…identifying neighborhoods where they congregate and live…offering them a way out…options to living such a miserably structured life…and if they refuse? Well, then we know where they live…be sure to keep a ledger! Take notes! Draw maps! And just wait…stay alert…and be ready! When push comes to shove we will have our day…Be patient!

  46. Smitty says:
    February 21, 2012 at 10:51 pm

    I have not seen or heard any apology from the military about burning hundreds of Bibles. I guess that’s okay because Christians don’t murder and maim when their Holy Book is desecrated.

    You missed an itchy butt hair on that egyptian imam and he is none to happy about it. He demands you come and take care of it on the double.

    By the way, us Citizens are perfectly capable of resolving our own itchy butt hair issues without the need for assistance from anybody. So please, no itchy butt hair bureaucracies are necessary.

    saw this on FOX news this morning, how the base is now on “lockdown” because the natives are rioting, burning and completely out of control..

    My heart hurts for all the men and women who have lost their lives, or sacrificed to serve in our armed forces during the war in Afghanistan.

    while on the surface it may seem for naught, I think it takes us closer to retribution.

    *Note. I can stomach about 20 minutes of FOX news in the morning, mostly to see what they are NOT saying. and this morning they had a Homeland security guy on talking about WMD being brought across the Mexican border.

    Now lemme get this straight.. they burned the kooo0-rans because taliban prisoners were writing extremist shit and messages in them. It’s ok to write in your koo-ran but don’t burn it. Hell, I may go out and buy one and draw x-rated pics in it!
    Just out of curiousity, why do we even take those bastards prisoner? It would make much more sense to hang them, shoot them, or cut their heads off like they do their prisoners.
    If it was afghan civilian workers on the base.. I say ban all local nationals from working there. Why are we paying these fuckers our money to stab us in the back? I’d rather see contractors from the us, philipines or other friendly countries get that money. What the hell were local nationals doing around a burn barrel anyway? When I was in and we used to burn documents and things.. it was a select group of military who did that. Not some goat humping pedofile worshiping backstabbing carpetbanger.
    Now we’ve got these bastards rioting at the gates of Bagram. Maybe it’s time to get Soviet on their asses. Send up a few gunships with gatlins and let’s solve the overpopulation problem.
    These islamic pricks only understand one thing and that is violence. Their deathcult was founded on it. Apologizing to them just makes us look weak in their eyes. \
    I’d say that Afcrapistan would make an nice area for a glass parking lot. One million of these bastards aren’t worth the life of one US or coalition soldier.

    @slobo: I retract that last…dude, these inbred animals have been pissed off at the entire world for 14 fucking centuries, appeasing to them will never work, negotiating will never work, pleading with them will never work, asking them to be nice will never work, PAYING them to do any of the above will NEVER work……..they are culturally inbred, retarded and incapable of empathy, maybe youve been away for a while, but islam has absolutely no desire to negotiate anything with anyone….EVER…their only purpose in life is to conquer, whom they cannot conquer, they will kill….their pedophile, inbred prophet gave them an order and they will not stop until theyve established their inbred, pedophillic, goat fucking caliphate to rule the entire fucking world…you want to negotiate with them?, read their stupid book?, appease their retarded sensibilities, head on over…no-one I know will stop you….but holy shit, open your fucking eyes and mind for once in your life…if their issues could have been dealt with by negotiations and understanding, this shit would have ended in the 7th century…that it has only gotten worse ought to be the only indicator you need to see that it will only comtinue until every goat humping, baby raping, self-immolating raghead has been vaporized!

    There’s a plane leaving the states heading that way about every hour…good luck!
