Newsweek published an article last week, that alleged U.S. soldiers in Gitmo were flushing the Koran down the toilet, as an interrogation technique. This caused some people in Iraq to get seriously pissed off...So they killed some Marines.
Have you have had to say, "Sorry, if anything I said offended you..." Well, looks like newsweek can now say, "Sorry if anything I printed ever got you killed..."
