Now, if they announced it just to get Muslims there to witness to them and actually had no intention of burning a Koran, well, it’s kind of provocative, but I’m of mixed emotions about the method.
Its also therapeutic and would feel really, really good.
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’.
