I was watching 60 minutes one night not too long ago and they interviewed the guy who provides most of the flags for burning in the middle east.
Of course he's a Haji who says he has no political leanings (I call BS) one way or another. He says he's just providing a product. The funny thing is, his flags resemble American flags but the stars are HUGE and there are only like 15 of them and there are usually only 10 or fewer stripes.
Doesn't excuse what they're doing because of the intent but it shows the intelligence level you're dealing with.
