The U.S. is torturing people and yet somehow the thought that the U.S. is also desecrating the Koran is some kind of impossibility?

That's just it. Wanting it to be true (just as Newsweek did) does not make it so. Is it possible? Of course. But reporting it as fact is plain irresponsible, shoddy, and dangerous. But again, if it reflects poorly on the US military, facts are irrelevant.
