‘Burn the Quran Day’ Plan Prompts Warnings of Anger, Unrest Wednesday, August 25, 2010 By Patrick Goodenough, International Editor
SNIPPET: "(CNSNews.com) – The Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) has joined the growing condemnation of plans by a Florida church to burn copies of the Quran on the 9th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks.
A spokesman for the Jeddah-based bloc of Islamic states expressed concern Tuesday that the planned action by the Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville would stir up “anger across the Muslim world and provoke unrest.”
The OIC said it hoped the U.S. government would “take appropriate steps to protect the sacred religious sentiments of Muslims of America and of the Muslims across the world.”"
SNIPPET: "The initiative’s Facebook page, “International Burn a Koran Day,” had attracted 6,000 supporters as of early Wednesday.
Jones is the author of a controversial book entitled “Islam Is of the Devil,” and the church’s Web site lists ten reasons why it thinks the Quran should be burned."

The kids at school printed up a bunch of pics
of the funny looking pervert with the round thing on his head (in secret of course) and they all have fun using them for toilet paper.
They vowed to softly yell “IN YOUR FACE” when it was used. :>))))))
Burn a Quran, find a crowd of barbarian psychotic murderers...
I’m thinking urinal target....
How about a billboard in Manhattan featuring the “Mohammed cartoons”?
I’m sure Mayor Bloomie, that great defender of free expression, would not object.
Barnes and Noble carries them.
I used to live in Gainesville, and believe me, you could easily burn a flag - or a Bible - there. It’s a university town, and while a lot of the native local population is pretty conservative, the powers that be are anything but.
There’s a big “Islamic Dawa Center” on the outskirts of town. Dawa means conversion, in case you were wondering. And sadly, I’d say most of Gainesville’s university population would have no problem with it. In theory, at least; once the anti-woman stuff started up, they might feel a little uneasy, but by then it will be too late.
Or how we might view a burn Americans day.
(Oh, sorry, we already that one on 9/11!)
“how we would view a mosque in Dearborn having a Burn a Bible Day.”
We wouldn’t be worried about violence breaking out. That is the difference in the influence of the two religions.
You should then apply for a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. After all, they've funded similar "art" projects.
And what better way to protest intolerance than by using a tactic popularized by the Nazis 80 years ago?
But of course when they burn our flag its okay, or destroy churches and synagogues, no need to worry about provoking *our* outrage or being insensitive.
Just another liberal double standard we’re all supposed to observe. Count me out.
***So, where does one purchase a koran?***
Any bookstore like Barnes and Nobel.
“The OIC said it hoped the U.S. government would “take appropriate steps to protect the sacred religious sentiments of Muslims of America and of the Muslims across the world.””
The muzzies cannot comprehend a govt not run or intimidated by theocrats. Islam and free speech are basically incompatible.
Show time!
Don’t like us burning your korans? Then don’t shred out bibles in Saudi Arabia.
What’s good for the goose is gravy for the gander.
I like your logic.
Because of the deceit of the leftists; etc; you will probably find that it was one of them that is behind this; not us.
Reminiscent of the cross in a jar of urine, yes? If thats protected art then so is the quran project.
IMHO, burning a Koran is like destroying valuable enemy intelligence.
Read the Islamic s**t, learn from it, study the Hadith commentaries, understand the nature of our implacable foe the hardcore `pure’ Muslim.
Burning a Koran is a waste of accelerant fuel, just like pelting muzzie fanatics with raw bacon is a waste of wholesome food.
When I was deployed (to the least unpleasant Muslim country, Uzbekistan) the battalion chappie gave me an excellent English-Arabic Koran which I later returned. If I still had it, it would be a valuable source.
Just sayin’.
They may want to consider using it as kindling to start the fire for good ‘ol American PIG ROAST!
