“There have been more terrorist attacks ON U.S.SOIL by these allegedly calmed Muslims in Obama’s first 18 months in office than in the six years under Bush AFTER he invaded Iraq.”

Does anyone have a handy list?

I wouldn’t be suprised if Coulter is correct though. Great point to highlight. FRegards ....

I mean the troops and not him will have to face the result of his actions.

But there is a good chance he will be arrested and convicted of a hate crime by this administration. Heck, the lefties probably want him stoned. As far as the Muslims are concerned, he will be lucky to survive as long as Theodoor van Gogh. And my guess is he knows this. How could he not.

What we all should be concerned about are people being coerced to be Islamic against their free will. If we do not stand up for them, they have no hope.

Forget the koran — let’s go to Washington and get a bonfire permit and burn copies of John Maynard Keynes’ economic books.
We could put an effigy of Paul Krugman tied to a pole in the middle.

Now that would be symbolic of how we feel!

I think I will start collecting Keynes’ works at book sales and hoard them for the burn party!

More likely he’ll be arrested by local authorities. In a news article yesterday the local fire chief stated that while bonfires are legal, burning books is not. The printer’s ink is deemed to be a hazardous material.

This “pastor” is a Fred Phelps type out to make conservative Christians look bad. Coincidence that he is making this “stand” around the time that people are opposing the WTC mosque?

So you cannot start fires in your fireplace with newspaper ? Talk about a nanny state. They deem the ink in the Koran a greater threat then the actual text stating kill the infidels where ever you find them.

Guess they think it’s better to use a petroleum based lighter fluid to ignite the fireplace or wood stove.

Good point, and you always have to wonder about that. But in reality it may only be a leftist religious leader who would want to do this in the first place. We have already seen most conservative religious leaders coming out condemning the burning. And that is understandable. Today the Koran, tomorrow the Bible.

Interesting that we have two vectors at play that seem designed to inflame the Islamic-Infidel conflict. Although I really do not think the Islamist really needed anymore inflaming. Perhaps they just needed justification for whatever comes next. Conspiratorially speaking of course.

Then our strategy would be working, namely to maneuver our enemies into a position where their critical vulnerabilities are exposed and they may be defeated, and in most cases in their homelands with minimal loss in ours.

Half of the problem is identifying those who are our enemies. Unfortunately, too many of them reside in the US.

“Liberal America is terrified of Muslims. Liberals have no foresight and consequently are always surprised when someone wants to kill them. “

In #7 you accused the Koran burners of being liberals! You don’t seem to know what you think.

The reason not to burn Qurans is that it's unkind — not to jihadists, but to Muslims who mean us no harm. The same goes for building a mosque at ground zero — in both cases, it's not a question of anyone’s “rights,” it's just a nasty thing to do.

Well I'll agree with that statement.

The Dove Church is run by Leftist moles anyway

Not doubting your statement but what do you base it on?

I just think burning Korans will grow radical Islam into a force so strong that we'll have to fight a world war against them.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Islam by definition **is** radical to the core, therefore, if someone is Muslim they **are** radical. It is already a force so strong that we will have to fight a world war against them.

There is no such thing as moderate Islam. And... Ann Coulter is wrong! There are no Muslims that “mean us no harm”.

So burning the koran is an affront to all muslims. Well, the building of the Ground Zero mosque is an affront to all Americans.
All the muslims have to do to stop the Florida pastor from this “affront” is to shut down their plans to build the GZ mosque.
Aren’t Americans allowed to be outraged by those who attacked us and those who spit in our face by building their monument at the very site of the attack? At least we got their attention. I mean, American flags are burned at will by them; it’s time they got some reaction.

That is probably also true.
