You have got to read this. Forget Amnesty International. If you want to help some people who really need it, pressure your Senator to get more done about Zimbabwe (or the Sudan, or any number of other places where far worse horror is happening than Korans in a toilet). Now granted, the U.S. pretty well has its hands tied with Iraq, Afghanistan, and a ton of money being paid out all over the world. Maybe this time the U.N. could step up and try to meet the goals of its charter. Or perhaps enlightened France, so quick to criticize the U.S. for every last thing they can think of, will put their money where there mouth is and try to help someone besides themselves. I seem to remember from my history courses that many of the problems in Africa are a at least somewhat a result of French imperialism back in the day.
