Muslims burn effigy of Obama in Afghanistan; Karzai demands Terry Jones be punished

Enraged demonstrators took to the streets of Afghanistan for a third day Sunday, killing two and injuring dozens of others after a fundamentalist Florida pastor burned the Koran.

President Hamid Karzai repeated his call to the White House, Senate and United Nations to bring to justice Terry Jones, the Gainsville, Fla. pastor who organized a mock "trial" that resulted in the burning of Islam's holy book on Friday, officials said.

Jones is the same inflammatory religious leader who threatened to burn a Koran last year on the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, triggering worldwide outrage.

Protests have erupted throughout Afghanistan since Jones' most recent stunt. At least 22 people in the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif were killed in the unrest, including seven UN staff members.

The UN, however, vowed that the attack - the worst in Afghanistan since the Taliban were toppled in 2001 - would not derail its work in the war-torn nation.

Hey, Harry Karzi-stein;

YOUR rules do not apply in OUR country. If I had access to a Koran, I’d set it on fire in my backyard, and smoke a Pork Loin over the top of it.

mmmm, BBQ Pork Loin, served Afghan-style .....

I’m gonna have to wait a day or two to burn my Koran.

After soaking it in that bucket of pig urine for 2 days, it doesn’t seem to want to light so good.

Hey Obama....Show those Muzzies your Peace Medal.

[Bon mots]

The only solution is to flatten Afghanistan. Those savages will never be good for anything but target practice.

[digger48]

One of the commenters claims this is proof that Obama is not a Muslim, ‘cause they wouldn’t do this to one of their own.

[BuckeyeTexan]

Take it up with your precious UN, Karzai. I’m sure they’ll pass some resolutions and such for you.

[johniegrad]

Time to remove all support for Karzai and let the chips fall where they may. Enough of this nonsense.

[aquila48]

Has anyone heard any news from the “moderate muslim community” condemning all this violence??

[Rome2000]

Finally figured out how to get rich, sell a Koran burning kit complete with matches, and hog fat.

Then organize a national Koran burning day once a month, maybe they will all go nuts and kill each other off.

P2 demands that Islam be severely punished for Jihad.

[sanjuanbob]

Where is the ACLU?

[dfwgator]

Hey, they can’t burn our President in effigy....only WE can burn our President in effigy.

[Rebelbase]

I am deeply offended you would commit sacrilege by smoking pork over a smoldering Koran.

Use oak or hickory.

[dfwgator]

The UN, however, vowed that the attack - the worst in Afghanistan since the Taliban were toppled in 2001 - would not derail its work in the war-torn nation.

Nothing will stop their important work of writing "Letters of Deep Concern."

[outhousepatrol]

An effigy?...Why do they settle for just an effigy?

Now, would be a good time for “the one” to walk amongst his fellow muzzies in Afghanistan!

[NWFLConservative]

Piss on you Karzai, and the rest of your subhuman savages. If we had a REAL president calling the shots, instead of a closet muslim, that entire country of yours would have been returned back to nature a while ago.

[pallis]

This is the Democracy and liberty we’ve been fighting for...?

[NWFLConservative]

"Has anyone heard any news from the “moderate muslim community” condemning all this violence??"

That is the root of the problem. If it cones down to us, the only solution is to wipe them off the face of the planet. These savages need to start policing their own. Why have then now? Because under the guise of feigned indignation, they are cheering them on in their battle against the "great satan"
