This may not be a popular reply, and while I am NOT a fan of the Koran, I feel this church burning them is infantile at best. It’s a ‘why stoop to their level’ kind of thing.

Where did the church get all of them, anyway? Did they BUY them somewhere? Wouldn’t that defeat the whole purpose? lol

They don’t have to actually burn them - just saying they will is enough to get the muzzies in a tizzy.

You’re correct. Buying them would defeat the point. All you have to do is contact CAIR and they’ll send them for free.

No I agree with you, it is certainly a stoop to their level kind of thing. We are better then that

I'll back you up.

Who is the enemy? The Taliban nut-job that is shooting at you or the Afghan villager that is sick of the extremism of the Taliban but still considers himself a Muslim?

Let's say that there is a patriotic Jewish veteran's group that is appalled at the nut-jobs of Fred Phelps Westboro Baptist Church and their protests at soldier's funerals. So, to protest against Phelps' nut-jobs, they decide to burn copies of the New Testament and pictures of Jesus.

Has that patriotic Jewish veteran's group done anything of value except to create more enemies for themselves that have nothing to do with the Westboro Baptist Church?

There may be Catholics that go to Mass once every 5 years but, once a non-Catholic starts insulting the beliefs of their parents and insulting the Virgin Mary, you have a pissed off ex-Catholic that suddenly became more Catholic than the Pope and a fight on your hands.

All the Church is going is providing a giant propaganda tool to the Taliban.

Who gives a sh*t? It’s none of Petraeus’s business.

The troops can defend themselves (to the extent allowed by Rules of Engagement).

The Christian minority in these muslims countries are the ones who could suffer greatly. The fools in Florida are contributing to the persecution; they should consider this and pardon the korans somehow.

Your stupid rules of engagement General is what is killing our troops. You need to man up and tell it like it is. Turn the troops loose, and get this damn war over with.

I agree. The General is concerned with the welfare of his command which is his job.

What do the Quran burners hope to accomplish, besides
maybe getting some unwary American killed by a mob?
