Day 7 Of Koran Burning Protests

“This attack is revenge against those soldiers who burned our Koran,” Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said in an email.

More than 30 people have been killed in protests and related attacks since the incident came to light last Tuesday, including four US soldiers.
Yesterday, demonstrators hurled grenades at a small US base in northern Afghanistan and the ensuing gun battle left two Afghans dead and seven Nato troops injured.



US Ambassador Ryan Crocker said that things were getting back to a 'more normal' situation.

  1. We'll be hearing more "normalization" rhetoric throughout the week.
