This story is being driven by the Leftist media and the Jihadists. They both need a cause celebre. The Leftist media will characterize the pastor as being representative of conservative Christians, Tea Party people. The Jihad crowd has another reason to burn American flags or bomb the US.
Well said.
Cowards
Do you honestly think is a very honorable thing, to burn that book?
I think I will burn a Koran tonight.
Does anybody want to interview me?
Fox’s Saudi masters have spoken.
Now that’s smart
Unless they don’t want to. Not the same as having it in the news along with other stuff that you would watch. Good call for the both of them.
I wonder if it would be PC to post a cartoon of muhammed roasting a pig over a burning koran?
I think we should all bury our heads in the sand so that we won’t see the Koran being burned.
So, the news is not the news as defined by the news reporters. Or do they consider themselves the news makers?
This nut should have an audience of about 50 other nuts. And that's it.
The media has turned this into the Global event it is, and now it will be seen by tens of millions, thanks to their fleet of satellite up-link trucks, and mobs of reporters.
They will give it more attention than the anniversary itself.
Someone will and will show it on YouTube.
It seems that the media will exploit and wring out every drop of coverage and sensationalism that they can on this demonstration, and then censor the actual short, demonstration itself from the American audience.
We may have to depend on foreign sources for the censored video.

So be it if the Rev. wants to burn the Koran. No one talks about the American military burning bibles in Afghanistan so they wouldn’t offend the Muslims. A note; last night Michael Savage reported that he would not be surprised that two members of the security who were murdered recently were unarmed while escorting a US General in a meeting with a tribal leader in Afghanistan. Supposedly they may have been unarmed so not to offend the trial leaders. Let’s hope the facts of this murder come to the surface.
As far as putting our troops in harms way if the Koran is burned.......duh the troops are a target as soon as they land in Afghanistan’ Saturday is 9/11, 9 years after savages slaughtered 3,000 plus Americans, and we’re worried about offending the slime.

Yes, it’s called blackmail. This country has given in to blackmail since it discovered that Arab oil is cheaper than its own.
The Mudslimes are already inflamed. They’ve been inflamed since the beginning of their horrid little religion. Since day one of Mohammed’s birth I bet. This is just ANOTHER excuse for them to burn the flag, hate AMericans, and make MORE threats. No matter waht, they will lash out and this is only an excuse for it, one of many. They even make up excuses.
