Re: burning religious books, I know that in Judaism, Torahs, prayer books and other religious tomes that are worn or damaged are supposed to be buried. I suspect that you are right Lee about disposal of the Qu'ran, but when AMERICANS burn the books, that's another story altogether.

The soldiers, or rather their COs were acting rashly and irresponsibly burning the Qu'rans.
