We really ARE playing into the hands of Al Queda. Already, US Servicemen are being attacked as Afghan people protest the burning o the Koran by burning American Flags and what not. This idiot pastor is putting the lives of our young ones in the military in grave danger, and does NOT care.
GAINESVILLE, Fla. --
The pastor at Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville has vowed to burn Korans next weekend on the ninth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks -- a plan that has sparked a fiery and emotional protest in Afghanistan.
Pastor Terry Jones called the book burning a warning. He said he plans to send a message to Muslim extremists by burning copies of the Koran on his church's lawn.
"We believe people are afraid of radical Islam. We hope it brings awareness," Jones said.
The pastor's plans to torch the holy books ignited outrage in Kabul. Hundreds of Afghans shouted anti-American slogans.
The protesters burned American flags, along with a replica of the pastor.
