(2005-05-27) — Muslims in Pakistan and Afghanistan rioted today in response to new reports that copies of the Koran were desecrated when two American buildings collapsed after being struck by American airplanes in September of 2001.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) revealed that fragments of the burned and soiled Korans were discovered in the ruins of the World Trade Center towers in New York City.
A spokesman for the ACLU said the Bush administration did little to prevent the damage to the Islamic holy books, that apparently belonged to Muslims who worked in the office towers until their “unjustified termination” during the morning of September 11, 2001.
“This is just another example of U.S. insensitivity to cultural diversity,” said the unnamed ACLU spokesman. “To add insult to injury, anonymous sources say that some of the Koran fragments may have been unceremoniously dumped in a landfill.”
