WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is extending his deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those killed in the northern Afghan city of Mazar-i-Sharif by protesters enraged by the burning of a Quran in Florida.

Obama says desecration of the Quran "is an act of extreme intolerance and bigotry."

I just love reading liberal comments about this story. They use their foul speech to attack the pastor (filthy republicans) and make excuses for the muzzies (this is not what 99.999% muzzies are). If they only knew the libs will be the first ones the muzzies will kill. They are really a pathetic bunch devoid of any moral compass whatsoever. Any action perceived by them as a threat to their power or ability to win elections must be silenced weather or not its protected by that inconvenient thing called the Constitution.

He would say nothing if an American flag was burned. The fact that he always has to chime in about the Koran tells me where his heart is. God save us!!!!!!

FUBO! Why do you not ever condemn the constant and routine slaughter and perscution of Christians by moslems around the world, especially in Africa and Indonesia, both of which seem to be so dear to your heart. You are a fraud, BO!

The Saudis destroy all Bibles that are brought in by travelers through Saudi airports. Hey Bambi, any comments?

The US government destroys Bibles brought into Afghanistan. So Barry Soetoro has no problems torching Bibles, in fact, orders it to take place, but light up his operating manual? 'Extreme...' (a word we know the DNC Caucus advises to be used freely and liberally in any conversation).

Yet, the sound of crickets when Muslims destroy Bibles. Asinine!

I suggest May 29 to commemorate that day in 1453 when the Muslim invaders butchered all the Christians who had taken refuge in the Aya Sophia in (then) Constantinople. There’s a tradition that when the building returns to Christian authority, the priests will again materialize.
This is a vacation spot that Zippy really enjoyed touring, his only comments being compliments to the ROP. He is so ignorant of history, that he may think it’s always been a mosque.

Perhaps, we should give “Obummer” a birthday present. How about 4 August.

Ops I forgot, “Muslims don’t celebrate birthdays.”

Several months ago there was a news item on the web about the US Army in Afghanistan burning several hundred Boibles that had illicitly been brought into Afghanistan.

Apparently it is okay for the US Government to burn Bibles but not for US citizens to burn a Koran.

Monkeys definitely are in charge in Washington DC!!

At the end of the day the Quran is just a book. If someone believes that it is more then that that is their right and it would be entirely appropiate for them to not burn it. But, to say somebody else can not destroy their own copy of a book is just rude.

“If murder and mayhem is the disproportional response
to koran burning, then let our response be disproportional
too.”

Agreed, tet. Lock ‘n load, rock ‘n roll...
