Should you be banned from this website for not getting your facts right? Newsweek fact-checked the story with their source INSIDE the Pentagon.
After the bloodshed, the Pentagon source said he no longer remembered instances of the Quran being placed on a toilet.
Everyone is so quick to ruin this guy's career. The facts were checked and were correct. It's the Pentagon who is trying to change the facts in order to steer policy. |

i recall the days when an explosive charge demanded multiple sources. think watergate. now, if you "trust" one anonymous source, you print it.
and we wonder why people don't trust the media.
