In Afghanistan protesters have taken to the streets for a fourth consecutive day over the accidental burning of Korans at a U.S. air base. The Korans were taken from prisoners and thought to be subversive materials. The U.S. military command and President Obama have both apologized for the incident. Joining the show is Orla Guerin, correspondent for our partner the BBC.

Question?
How come American Muslim don't behave like the Afghans?
Ed from Larchmont. not all Catholics disagree with the positions of the OBama Administration.
It's interesting that the president, secretary of state, and head of the Joint Chiefs has apologized for this Koran burning. Religious sensitivies, very good. But when the Catholics say it's against our conscience to provide certain things - no religious sensitivity there. Hmm.
