Well, the Vatican is right, although certainly there has never been a book that more deserves burning than the Koran.
I know this preacher has every right to burn it, but it’s just a media-oriented provocation and it’s actually getting a lot of favorable press for the Muslims, so I think it’s going to backfire and deligitimize any protest.
I've seen any number of Americans wondering why the President is outraged by Koran burning but supports public funding for those who defile Christian symbols. Islam is being privileged in American society and this is a fundamental strategem of jihad. To treat Islam the same as other religions is the American way. I think this incident is encouraging Americans to oppose jihad which is bad for the Muslims.
