From today's Washington Post:
Gitmo Guards Accused of Mistreating Koran: Newly Released FBI Documents Detail Allegations.

Nearly a dozen detainees at the Guantanamo Bay military prison in Cuba told FBI interrogators that guards had mistreated copies of the Koran, including one who said in 2002 that guards "flushed a Koran in the toilet," according to new FBI documents released today.

The summaries of FBI interviews, obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union as part of an ongoing lawsuit, also include allegations that the Koran was kicked, thrown to the floor and withheld as punishment and that guards mocked Muslim prisoners during prayers.

Stores brace for mad rush on "We're Sorry" greeting cards to send to Newsweek.
