That's the gay pride flag flying over a military installation in Afghanistan.
Tony Perkins of the family research council is very upset:
PERKINS: Where is the concern now for angering Afghan Muslims, who vehemently oppose homosexuality? The issue is as much an issue of military security as it is of religious morality. After Februarys accident with the Korans, American lives were lost. What price will we pay because some want to use the military to show their gay pride?

PEACE!
