Across the Pond - Afghanistan

 

In a case of stunning carelessness some NATO troops
Burned Korans.  Afghanistan is up in arms now.  Oops.
Taliban is calling for attacks upon our bases.
Guess negotiations with them blew up in our faces.

There is not  a shot in hell they'll talk peace with us now.
I have heard of dreadful luck and timing, sure, but...  Wow!
We could not have managed to insult them more had we
Planned the operation from here to eternity.

4 days they've been rioting; a dozen people dead.
Wonder if the Book we burned is one these folks have read?
Pretty sure the Prophet (and, I guarantee, his wives)
Would forgive an accident if it meant saving lives.
