For Jan Kubis, head of the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) and secretary-general Ban Ki-moon’s special representative in Afghanistan, multiple U.S. apologies – including one from President Obama – and an order from International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) commander Gen. John Allen that all 130,000 coalition troops in the country “complete training in the proper handling of religious materials” by this past Saturday, have not been sufficient.
“I agree with those who say that after this apology and after the investigation disciplinary actions should follow, those who were behind this grave mistake should be held accountable for it,” he told a press conference in Kabul on Thursday.
Only when such disciplinary steps had been taken, he said, would the ISAF forces “be able to say: ‘Yes, we are sincere.’”
Enough is enough....WTF is wrong with the world?
ReplyDeleteWhat do you expect? They need to give all our soldiers, who are trained to kill and die for our Country sensitivity training. How dare they burn a favorite book of people that are trying to kill them every day. I remember my sensitivity training. A lady from the Red Cross came to my door not long ago and asked if I could help with the flooding in Pakistan? I said I'd like to but my hose only stretches to the end of my driveway.
ReplyDeleteAs soon as everytime they burn the American Flag they are punihsed...
ReplyDeleteThen we will talk...
If this happens, IMPEACH OBAMA NOW!
How many of our soldiers were killed over the burning of a book that had already been desecrated by them writing messages in them? When do we get an "I'm sorry" or when will the people that killed them be disciplined?
