U.S. military says Afghan bibles have been destroyed

Sweetness and Light Then scroll down: "I can now confirm that the Bibles shown on Al Jazeera’s clip were, in fact, collected by the chaplains and later destroyed. They were never distributed," spokeswoman Major Jennifer Willis said at Bagram air base, north of Kabul…
"Compare and contrast this event with the current outrage about some crackpot’s plans to burn a couple of Korans in Texas on September 11. (For instance, a State Department spokesman has called Mr. Jones’s idiotic plan “un-American.”)
"So where was the outrage when the US Government destroyed Bibles — in order to avoid offending the sensitivities of the pious Muslims in Afghanistan?"
