US Military burns Holy Bibles in Afghanistan.
AllVoices.com (excerpts):  At Camp Delta, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, there are special handling requirements for the Qu'ran.  In a classified US Military document titled, "Handling the Qu'ran," a set of protocols are to be followed by military prison guards:  1) Clean latex gloves will be put on in full view of the detainee prior to handling the Qu'ran.  2) Two hands will be used at all times signaling respect and reverence.  3) Care should be used so that the right hand is the primary one used to manipulate part of the Qu'ran due to cultural association with the left hand.  4) Handle Qu'ran at all times as if it were a fragile piece of delicate art.  5) Ensure the Qu'ran is not placed in offensive area, such as the floor, near the feet, or dirty wet areas.  

VOANews.com (exerpts taken from article dated 9/8/10):  US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has called plans by a small Florida evangelical church to burn copies of the Qu'ran on September 11, a "disrespectful, disgraceful act."  Her comments Tuesday came during a dinner at the State Department to observe Iftar, the breaking of the daily fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.  

CNN World (excerpts):  US 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.  Troops at posts in war zones are required to burn their trash Lt. Col. Mark Wright said.   

Commentary:  Since Qu'rans might be used to convert Americans, should they be burned in the United States?  No?  Do you detect bigotry, discrimination and down right abominations committed by the Obama administration against the Holy Bible, Christians and the United States of America?!  The Holy Bible says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...and the Word was made flesh (Jesus) and dwelt among us (we saw His glory, the only begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth" John 1:1,14.  "He who despised Moses's law died without mercy under two or three witnesses.  How much sorer punishment do you suppose he will be thought worthy who has trodden under foot the Son of God and has counted the blood of the covenant, whereby he was sanctified, an unholy thing and has spited the Spirit of grace?" Hebrews 10:29.  To sum this all up: Jesus is the Word of God and Hebrews 10:29 says that a person who treads "under foot" the Son of God is worthy of a worse punishment than death (that would be hell).  Bottom line, unless Obama and all of those involved repent of what they did to these Bibles, they are going to burn in hell forever.  That's scripture, not me.  "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather refrain from wrath, for it is written, 'Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord'" Romans 12:19.  Do you know what the Muslims did after Pastor Terry Jones burned a Qu'ran?  They beheaded, yes, sliced the heads off of two United Nations employees in Afghanistan, after killing about 20 others!  A true Christian would not touch a hair on the head of anyone who burns a Bible, but I can tell you that God is going to put those people into hell fire to burn forever, "The wicked will be turned into hell and all the nations that forget God" Psalm 9:17.  If you have participated in such things, it is time to repent and call on the mercy of God.  The God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel is merciful and He will forgive.  Allah is hateful and he will not forgive, nor do those who serve him.
