That said, I understand the concept of kissing the Koran...we are in their home. it was an attempt to have only:

500 new insurgents/terrorists created
5,000 on-the-fence Iraqi's now hate America
50,000 Iraqi's who like America are now on the fence

I respect the Officer's decision, I feel terrible that he had to do such a thing, I strongly believe no member of our Militaryshould ever have to do something so gut-wrenching. That Officer is as much a hero as the guy covering a hand grenade with his body so his buddies are spared. Kissing that Koran saved a few American lives IMHO.
Do you have some basis for these numbers or did you just pull them out of your ass?

The real idiot here is the guy who made an issue of this.
