The White House released a statement from President Obama on the riots in Afghanistan that were prompted by one U.S. churchs decision to burn Islams holy book, the Koran.
The presidents statement:
Today, the American people honor those who were lost in the attack on the United Nations in Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan. Once again, we extend our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who were killed, and to the people of the nations that they came from. The desecration of any holy text, including the Koran, is an act of extreme intolerance and bigotry. However, to attack and kill innocent people in response is outrageous, and an affront to human decency and dignity. No religion tolerates the slaughter and beheading of innocent people, and there is no justification for such a dishonorable and deplorable act. Now is a time

The rioted over the soldiers who killed the civilians and took the pictures, and not the stupid pastor.....but that would reflect badly on “The One” so they deflect the blame.
Zer0 needs to show more respect and reverence to the US Constitution.
Obama preaches at the Muslims. Ya that will work (sarc).
“No religion tolerates the slaughter and beheading of innocent people”
lol. Almost no religion. Just one.
As we see like this AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.
He's siding with the Muslims and it's just plain WRONG.
I wonder if the won considers “piss Christ” to be an act of extreme intolerance and bigotry? didn’t think so.
He can't show positive feelings towards something he loathes.
The only Constitution for King Obama is his communists empire.
The desecration of the Koran is a brave act of moral judgment that is correct and which is deserved by Islam.Islam is a cult and not a religion and does not deserve tolerance and freedom of religion.
“No religion tolerates the slaughter and beheading of innocent people”
Islam does!
This is a correct statement.
Thank you Mr Obama for acknowledging that islam is not a religion.
At least this latest reaction from the Islam world can help dispel the “nation building” notion from policy makers (both left and right wing) here in the U.S. I can only hope.
Except when the Saudis confiscate and burn Bibles, of course...
....and now, if you don’t mind, I have a tee time that requires my attention.
Islam does.
“The desecration of any holy text, including the Koran”
There is nothing holy about the queeran. It was written in evil, by evil and directed to keep evil in this world.
Could this jerk possibly be any further out of touch with reality? That must be a cozy alternative universe he inhabits.
Here are two clues for you, Mr. President:
1. What religion tolerates slaughter and beheading? Islam.
2. What is the justification? The Koran.
