Newsweek magazine's now-retracted story that a military guard at the
U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, flushed a copy of the Koran down a
toilet has sparked angry denunciations by the White House and the
Pentagon, which have linked the article to Muslim riots and deaths
abroad.

allegations from detainees and others of desecration of the Muslim holy
book for more than two years.
