Drudge now has link to story at Sky top left.
If the imam calls off the mosque at ground zero, the pastor in Fla will forget about the Koran burning.
So if he doesn’t, and the burning takes place, it will be the imam’s fault.
Bwahahaha!
The First Amendment: Either it’s good enough for the Imam AND the Pastor, or the Imam wants the First Amendment only for Muslims.
Break out the popcorn!
I just fail to see how this is a big deal. Why is the media going crazy become some guy is going to burn a Koran? Who ordered the media to do this?
THIS GUY IS A PR GENIUS!
I thought he was travelling up there Saturday to meet face to face?
What does handing out the number do? Just going to get flooded w/calls from every loon on the planet, i.e., prepare for busy signal.
Sounds like a gimmick.
Rauf should build his stinking mosque, and Jones should burn the stinking Koran, and anyone offended by either act should be told to act like an adult and GET OVER IT.
Getting offended by someone every once in a while is part of the cost of living in a free society. DEAL WITH IT.
So we know there is one man with some stones left in this country...............
Drop The Hamosque or I'll Shoot This Dog
Up until early yesterday Pastor Jones had for the most part been rational and theologically coherent in justifying his proposed Koran-burning. Yesterday and today he has jumped the shark.
Jones says Islam is of the Devil yet now he claims to have negotiated with Imams and he expresses outrage that they allegedly lied to him. Which is it?
Jones’ associate, in the video linked above, says in Jones’ presence that burning Korans is wrong. Well, either it is wrong or it is right and if it is wrong then you don’t do it for that reason. On his website Jones posted fifteen reasons for burning the Koran. What happened to those?
Two days ago I thought that Jones might have stumbled onto something interesting and useful. I marveled that he hadn’t screwed it up already. Yesterday and today Jones has made a hash of his mission.
What is with flashing The New Republic magazine cover during the video, The New Republic?
Freep Mail me if there’s a burning anywhere in LA.
I’m not doing anything tomorrow except watching football.
Can probably squeeze it in during one of the half-times..
Jones has ignited a host of copycat whackjobs all threatening to burn a Koran from the nutjob preacher in Topeka,Ks who pickets military funerals to some other nutjob in Wyoming threatening to burn a Koran on the Wyoming capitol steps.I guess Jerry Springer wouldn’t give them their 15 minutes.
Frankly, I don’t care what the Muslims do. They’ll go crazy no matter what.
I was opposed to this minister’s action because I thought it was, as Ann Coulter put it, unkind.
But I don’t think we should let ourselves be threatened, and if that’s what the Muslims want to do, then we have to fight back.
If he were lied to by this guy once (presumably, according to his version of events), why is he supposedly going to believe him THIS time (assuming there was indeed a first time)?
Go sell crazy somewhere else!
No, wait, it's all off. It now appears as if the Muslims lied. What a shock. So now we have a deadline for the Imam to call Pastor Jones and 'talk'. Frankly, like many FReepers, I'm getting bored with this whole thing. Like you, I'm sick and tired of endless Muslim 'rage' and their demands for American society to conform to their wishes, which are ridiculous. I certainly don't need another lecture about showing 'tolerance' toward Islam when America has over 2,000 mosques, Manhattan has 100 mosques and our elected officials, up to the president, jump ten feet whenever a Muslim says 'boo!'
Although I remain skeptical of the actual benefit to be derived from burning Korans I'm mighty weary of the thinly-veiled threats from Muslims about the consequences of that act, as if Americans are supposed to cringe with fear. No way, Abdul. This isn't Europe. Just because America made a gigantic error in electing a radical socialist as our president, we're going to fix that and in the meantime, if you don't like the way we live in OUR country, go back to the sand pit you came from.
Why isn’t this getting more coverage? Did the press get scared?
Memo to Pastor Jones:
You can’t make deals with Islamics. For reasons why, read the book before you burn it.
You were hoodwinked once already by the mosque imam, and made to look like a fool before the entire world.
Are you willing to make that same mistake AGAIN?
The West — and Islam — will respect those who do what they say they are going to do.
We all know what you said you’re going to do.
So..... just do it.
