Don't think the soldiers don't pick up on his hatred of Muslims/Islam.

Has Rush's hate planted the seeds/influenced the actions by a handful of our troops in Afghanistan. Here I am speaking of the Marines filmed urnating on some dead taliban and the decision to burn 60-70 Qur'an's in Afghanistan. Both of these acts are in sharp defiance of well known American policy. How much does non-stop hate get into the minds of our soldiers, resulting in some pretty horrific consequences.
