You are sadly off on both the topics. I'd suggest you learn before you talk like an expert.
You do realize that I was agreeing with you, which is why I addressed only a part of your point, right? Read between the lines please.
Also, you brought those points up, I just addressed them.
When and where did I claim I was an expert? I'm more of a forum pundit, I base my opinions on things I know and have learned, that doesn't make me an expert. I've made that clear to everyone on the forums, but apparently, you seem to think otherwise.
1) Tell me where is the Islamic way of burial defined? When is the ocean used in that context, where is it in the Quran and in other sect based literature?
There is a small wiki piece on it, you can start from there. This is public knowledge, so I'm not going to do your homework for you...

2) In the early days of WOT in Iraq, there were a LOT of media news about how American soldiers were touching Quran with bare hands (Without washing them as a Muslim does). The Pentagon launched a special training program to train soldiers on how to handle Quran properly if they come across one. You think they just did that for fun and poured in millions to set up training, moving soldiers in and out of that training, etc? ? You are forgetting, the US military has its own Muslim countrymen as soldiers too. So its not like Islam doesn't exist in the military. Will you hear one or two incidents of misuse? Absolutely. That's with everything. But do give credit to where its deserved.
I have given credit, by saying that the US military has high standards, but it is not a stretch to say that those standards are hardly adhered to by individual soldiers on the ground. If the standards were adhered to, those few incidents would never have happened. The fact that a few individuals have been caught mishandling Qurans, this shows to me that there might be more incidents where individuals who just haven't been caught.
You seem to be a bit...off about this, relax, have a kitten...
