I truly understand where the pastor's coming from but,knowing the Iranians,I think this tactic is likely to work *against* the clergyman.

The guys in Tehran with the long white beards and the long black dresses have a facination with ropes.

Here in America it is called freedom of religion and free speech.
While this inbred is not the sharpest #2 pencil in the box I whole heartedly support his right to burn a freaken koran or any other book/
I just think burning any book is wrong.
Ya wants to go back to the middle ages? Burn knowledge.

Good for him. I say so long as it's ok for muslims to use their machetes to hack innocent unarmed Christians to death or in this country for them to use hammers to rape, torture and smash in the heads of innocent Christian men, women and children then by all means... BURN BABY BURN. Let those qurans solve our energy crisis. Let's figure out how to turn them into fuel for our cars and homes.

JMHO

Well, the history of Iran says he’s for the long drop whatever happens over here.

Let me see if I have this right:

-Pastor burns Koran, Media plasters the story across the globe

-Obama uses the Constitution as de facto toilet paper and the Media looks the other way

Seems legit /sarc

A controversial Florida pastor has burned copies of the Koran and a depiction of the prophet Mohammed to protest the imprisonment in Iran of a Christian clergyman Youcef Nadarkhani.

And in doing so has committed the crime of again embarrassing the world wide Main Stream Media and progressive leftist governments who cower in front of evil Islamicists.

I heard about this on WINS newsradio in NYC.

Too bad they never focus on Ann Barnhardt. (I wonder why!)

I used to dislike this pastor, but after Hillary Clinton and David Petraeus begged him not to burn Korans, I began to root for him to do so. I DESPISE the Dhimmi groveling before these murderous savages.

I’m OK with burning Korans, just as long as some big shot Islamisist is holding it at the time.

Why are Jesse Jackass and Al Sharpton never referred to as “CONTROVERSIAL” reverends?

Where’s the proof that the Iranian paster is, still, alive?

The koran contains MIS-information and is used by a death cult to force the world to submit.

I’m not big on book burnin’ either but the first time this came up years ago I figured the way to do some good would have been for the preacher to round up some old Danielle Steele or maybe Zane Grey paper backs and just glue some Koran covers on them, make his point and then burn something worth burning. Pick anything from the fiction rack at Barnes & Noble, glue a pic of Mohammud on it , and light it up. The only thing the mideast nutcases understand is overwhelming force. The Mullahs might step a little more lightly if they see some resistance building -——they have to know they are close to their own “Persian Spring”.
