Flashback: U.S. Military Defends Burning Bibles In Afghanistan…
Oddly absent were the rampaging Christian mobs.
May 2009:
(CNN) — Military personnel threw away, and ultimately burned, confiscated Bibles that were printed in the two most common Afghan languages amid concern they would be used to try to convert Afghans, a Defense Department spokesman said Tuesday.
The unsolicited Bibles sent by a church in the United States were confiscated about a year ago at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan because military rules forbid troops of any religion from proselytizing while deployed there, Lt. Col. Mark Wright said.
Such religious outreach can endanger American troops and civilians in the devoutly Muslim nation, Wright said.
“The decision was made that it was a ‘force protection’ measure to throw them away, because, if they did get out, it could be perceived by Afghans that the U.S. government or the U.S. military was trying to convert Muslims,” Wright told CNN on Tuesday.
Troops at posts in war zones are required to burn their trash, Wright said.
The Bibles were written in the languages Pashto and Dari.
This decision came to light recently, after the Al Jazeera English network aired video of a group prayer service and chapel sermon that a reporter said suggested U.S. troops were being encouraged to spread Christianity.

The Obama administration has issued a regulation, set to take effect on Aug. 1, that will require all health-care plans in the United States to cover sterilizations,
artificial contraceptives and abortifacients without any fees or co-pay. Many American religious leaders, including all of the nation’s Roman Catholic bishops, have denounced the regulation as an attack on religious liberty because it will force many Americans to act against their consciences and the teachings of their faith.

I am so sick, sick, sick of rampaging muslims.
You know, maybe if these people had a little humor, music, dancing and Christianity in their lives, they’d have something better to do than spend 3 days raging.

I suspect that Obama burned his first bible in Pakistan and snorted the ashes ever since.
“The decision was made that it was a ‘force protection’ measure to throw them away, because, if they did get out, it could be perceived by Afghans that the U.S. government or the U.S. military was trying to convert Muslims,” Wright told CNN on Tuesday.”
ANYTHING BUT CHRIST, they say!!
“For they are a rebellious people, lying sons, sons who will not hear the instruction of the LORD; who say to the seers, “See not”; and to the prophets, “Prophesy not to us what is right; speak to us smooth things, prophesy illusions, leave the Way, turn aside from the path, let us hear no more of the Holy One of Israel.” Is. 30:9-11.
And oddly enough Christians didn’t rampage anywhere in the world either when those two Korean missionaries were murdered in Afghanistan after the 23 hostages were taken.
Maybe it’s time for Christians to wake up. Sometimes turning the other cheek is simply not the answer, too many turns makes the head spin around and around like a spinning top.
Has Obama ever muttered a word about the slaughter of Christians since he’s been in office?
I’m not snarking.. I don’t recall his ever muttering a word. He made a fool of himself and insulted the victims and families of Ft Hood.
Even the thing for Gabby Giffords he politicked. Obama is cheap punk.
Through our inaction and lack of fury the progressives were reassured in their belief that we are cowards, sheep who will readily back down rather than fight for our honor. Why does Islam get preferential treatment? Why do Obama and his cronies bow to them? Why, because the Islamist rages and batters when threatened. They are the only actions that our current overlords fear and understand.
For all the shit we get back from the Afbuttfucks and Pakis we can’t really be up to much real good there.
Wiping out the world opium epicenter is the only good thing I can think of for being there. And we could have done that in one year. That and deporting any US shithead that uses heroin to where they can be most happy. Heroin, opium, hashish, marijuana – those are all an immigration problem – letting habitual users stay in the US. We should start with deporting the chic Obama-loving Hollywood and TV drug head types. Don’t even bother to land, just shove them out an airplane with a parachute that opens automatically.
The way i see it, is liberals are a bunch of chicken shits, their athiest , secular, do what feels good mentality, knows they will not get any backlash from Christians, but they are scared shitless of muzzies.
F–k liberals, and F–k islam, i hope they meet in the streets one day.
F–king cowards.
Burn both books together and you will create the perfect balance of pacifism and savagery. Problem solved.
How many times have we heard Obama’s statement that he would “stand with the Muslims…”?
Now, he apologizes (again!) to the muzz, and not a word about the dead US soldiers.
What is it going to take to convince the people that he is in fact, a fucking Muslim?
Is he going to have to turn the White House into his own private mosk before anyone speaks up?
@Rufus:
The plans are already underway.

The Korans were burned because the Muzzies were writing in them to communicate with each other.
It’s sacrilege to write in a Koran.
The proper way to destroy a Koran that is unserviceable is by burning it.
So the Muzzies did the wrong thing and we did the right thing, by the rules of their own silly religion. So now they’re mad at us.
Typical.
@Mad dog: perfectly said!!
Also, that is because a book is a mere receptacle of the word of God. It is the words that matter not the actual physical book. And that just shows that muzzrats are still pagans, as to hold an object inviolate, is idol-worship of the worst kind!!
It seems the Libs in the US take their cues from the muzzie’s propensity for absurd overreaction. Common sense, it appears, is an inherited gene and has been bred out them.
Obama is nothing but a chicken shit muzz appeaser……….I would bet when he was growing up he got his ass kicked on a regular basis…………Commander in Cheif ; my ass…….
@ dba…vagabond trader…
Since before he was elected, there have been millions of us who believe he is a stealth muzz… with an agenda to Islamify our country.
Other than him saying he is a Christina when it serves his purpose, he has consistently proved that he is in fact, a Muslim.
I keep wondering, what is it going to take for the truth to come out?
Answer: a second term.
The leadership in the U.S. military leadership is an embarrassment.
Sucking up to Muslim scum.
Douglas MacArthur would have been a real man and told the POTUS where to go.
Any of you military men who realize what is going on, I sincerely apologize for the pussification of the leadership in the U.S. military and I have never even wore the uniform. I’m embarrassed!
But I do know U.S. history and never, ever has the leadership been so full of men who apologize for OUR SOLDIERS BEING MURDERED BY THOSE MUSLIM MANIACS!
Smokey:
I bet Obama has never gotten his ass kicked.
That’s the problem!
Get that low life out of the White House already!
I’d just like to publicly apologise to any rational, peaceful, loving muzz that I might have offended this morning when I wiped my stink-locker with pages of the koran. Which reminds me, must pick up more korans soon, do they print them in extra-soft?
For a “religion” that claims it is wrong to worship idols, Islam sure worships a lot of idols.
The Koran is just a book, and not a very good one.
Muhammed was just a guy, and not a very good one.
Yes, this clearly demonstrates how “merciful and compassionate” the disciples of Allah are in practice.
