By this statement, the General just guaranteed that everybody and their mother in the Muslim world now knows about this.
He should have kept his mouth shut and let the thing pass and very few people even noticing it.
So don’t burn them. Insert strips of bacon to bookmark some of the most important verses and then pass them around for people to read.
This is still America. You can burn any book you want to. And, by the way, generals do not have the authority to tell American civilians what to do.
Last time I checked, our troops are heavily Armed, how about you bureaucrat Generals, start letting them use their weapons, betchya money we’d have fewer casualties...instead of the medal of restraint b.s.
Free speech is free speech.
If you support burning Korans, you support burning ANY book people don't agree with.
THINK about what you are saying here, people.
Golly, you mean this might cause the muzzies to shoot at and blow up our guys?
What? You say they already are?
never mind.

A bookburning might not be the most mature way of protesting but in this case the message to violent Muslims is that we are through cringing in the face of their threats. We’re done being the ones that are scared of them. We need to give them reasons to be scared of us. That’s the language they speak.

Gen Petraeus;
Keep your eye on the ball in front of you, focus on killing the bastards you are tasked with killing. Don’t worry about our liberties here in the US or how the exercise thereof may endanger us (our children) elsewhere.
A few burned copies of any (privately owned) book or flag won’t change the mind set they already have, don’t forget they hate us regardless of what we do or don’t do.
When the time comes for us to worry what some 7th centuryish woman hater/anti-western thug thinks of our natural rights and endowed liberites is the time when you need to (have the president) recall me to active duty....
Kind Regards;

I’m convinced that obama forced Petraeus to make a public statement on this. This makes me sick.
I can’t say I agree with everybody here on this one.
Muslims join the Western Left in gleefully burning the American flag on a regular basis, but I have looked hard and found no instances of public or organized Bible burnings by Muslims.
I could see burning the Iranian flag, perhaps, but even then, most of the Iranian people desire to topple their regime also.
The enemies of freedom and Western culture are most threatened by exposure. Let us concentrate on doing that and setting a higher standard for our own conduct.
