US general apologizes for Quran burning

Afghan demonstrators used slingshots and fired guns in the air while U.S. helicopters responded with flares, after thousands of angry people gathered Tuesday to protest the alleged burning of copies of the Quran at the main U.S. military base in Afghanistan.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Not sure what you quite mean here but one thing I would say is that Muslims are getting a bad rap at the moment.

I saw a documentary last night about a City some 30 miles from London called Luton which attracted a lot of Indians, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis to work at the, now closed, Vauxhall plant. The focus was extremism and I was quite surprised at what I saw.

My understanding of Islam are peace, equity, consideration, science, recognition and respect of others and all that is good in humanity.

Do we tar all Christians with the same brush because of Hitler and many other Christians had extreme views? I do not believe so.

Do we tar all Catholics for awful actions taken by the IRA and Sinn Fein? No we do not.

Muslims are defined by their Islam and that is the difference because it is a complete way of life and not a Sunday activity. Islam actually means peace, purity, submission and obedience.

Let us keep this in perspective and again Ketch I would like to understand your views.

It is one of the most crass disrespectful thing I have read in this forum and you need be ashamed of yourself.

I agree it is a book. People like you burn things without fire so it is not that significant that a material physical book is burnt as the message is still there whether it is the Qur'an or the Vedas.

Burning any book whether it is Janet and John or the Bhagwat Geeta is abhorrant because books should never be burnt as it contains knowledge and information someone will utilise.

You are welcome to your views but statements account for the man or woman you are.

When you have these views you should not be surprised that some call others Niggers, Coolies, Pakis, Honkies and all things derogatory.

Be careful.

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
