"KABUL?An appeals court in Afghanistan upheld 20-year prison sentences Sunday for two men who published a translation of the Quran that drove religious leaders to call for their execution.

The controversial text is a translation of Islam's holy book into an Afghan language without the original Arabic verses alongside. Muslims regard the Arabic Quran as words given directly by God. A translation is not considered a Quran itself, and it is believed a mistranslation could warp God's word."

Can we negotiate a deal where they hang 2 Tories for every 1 Afghan?

It does make me wonder why our service people are being killed to defend the Afghans' desire to pass such judgements.
