ACLU Out For More Muslim Blood

Whenever there's an anti-American pile-on the ACLU is ready to jump on: "Gee look! Fifteen dead muslims and waves of anti-American hatred! Can we get some of that?"

So today they sent out a news release alleging -- you guessed it -- flushed Korans in Guantanamo:

New documents released by the FBI include previously undisclosed interviews in which prisoners at Guantánamo complain that guards have mistreated the Koran, the American Civil Liberties Union said today. In one 2002 summary, an FBI interrogator notes a prisoner’s allegation that guards flushed a Koran down the toilet.

The claim, of course, is utterly unsubstantiated, since it came from FBI files that are like the now infamous Saad files -- information that has been gathered, but not verified. And as everyone except the Left knows, Guantanamo detainees rank lower than the US prison population and Clinton fundraisers in believability.

The ACLU is clearly afraid they might be criticized for being cavalier about releasing this informaiton even if it could cause more deaths; it's evident because their news release mentions the Newsweek article, but not the deaths that resulted. Such behavior is typical of leftwing zealots. Ban DDT even if it kills millions of Africans. Publish Guantanamo detainee allegations even if they've been shown to kill Muslims.

Hmm. Maybe this could be our new weapon in the war on terror. Publish all kinds of extreme, ungrounded allegations of Koran-thrashing and Mohammed-bashing and let them thin their own ranks.
