#2 They must not watch CSI: Melbourne.

Reminds me of what must be the worst show on TV anywhere: CSI Riyadh. Every damned episode, the Jews did it.

#3 So if somebody purchases their own koran, and does this to it, is this a crime? It's just a book, a piece of property.

#4 "A statement by the Victorian Board of Imams last night warned the Islamic and Christian community against an "us and them" mentality."

An "us and them" mentality permeates the koran. An "us and them" mentality is the foundation of their ~~faith~~ ideology. The Board of Imams should stuff a sock in it. I don't take kindly to "warnings" of any kind from muslims.

#5 According to "The Age" version, the koran was found at 5:30 am, & the "prayer" room is in Melrose Drive, near, but not in the Tullamarine
terminal.

Not somewhere the general public would go at that hour - mainly taxi drivers as stated.

#6 Another staged outrage?

I'm so cynical now that I find it just as likely, if not moreso.

#7 "We want to eliminate all these kind of things from happening to any (holy book)."

I'm sure Fehmi was real concerned about the the Bible desecration and condemed it with great vigor, right?

#8 He said while he was not expecting any violent retaliation from the Islamic community...

Yeah. That never happens...

#9 Well, now let's reflect for a moment. If I - or most other people in that big ol' happy family we call Western Civilization - was pis*ed off at a book, we'd tear it to shreds and leave it at that. Maybe drop-kick it into a garbage can or run over it a few times.
But OTOH, only the Koran seems to ever get defcated or urinated upon on a regular basis, and almost always in a mosque or prayer hall that no non-muslim should ever be able to get near without being noticed. Look back at all the complaints of desecration of the Koran, and it always seems to involve #1 or #2.
Reality check - the muzzies did it themselves and have already absolved themselves of blame so long as a couple of kaffirs get what's coming to them. After all, how dare they not overreact and go medieval on us when the muslims desecrated THEIR holy book?

#10 I am taking bets that this turns out to be another ROP faithful trying to drum up sympathy.

#11 I'm with Mike. Heavy feeling it's staged. Only muzzies feel strongly enough about their book to desecrate it. Infidels don't give much of a hoot about "holy books".

#13 "A statement by the Victorian Board of Imams last night warned the Islamic and Christian community against an "us and them" mentality."

One way to overcome the "us and them mentality" would be for the Victorian Board of Imams to sanction Melbourne's 2000 muslim taxi drivers to carry guide dogs & alcohol, as requested by the Victorian Taxi Association.

Melbourne taxis are best avoided, in my experience.
