Do any of you people on this thread understand that actions have consequences? And those consequences directly affect the warriors in Afghanistan who are putting their asses on the line for you? This jackass preacher has every right to burn the Koran, but his actions pose a grave danger to our troops.
What reaction??
Are you saying they weren’t doing these things before the burning?
I see no difference.
Excellent point. It seems some in here are not using their brain
He called it the Holy Quran but has never condemned the burning of the Holy Bible or American Flag.
Seems Gen. David Petraeus is taking a page from the Bush compassionate war Manual,Which has worked out great\s,The General needs to step down for that remark and come home.
Their asses have been put on the lines, by the current rules of engagement that they have to operate under, in war you either release the dogs or you do not.
Who exactly are we fighting?
That jackass preacher has under our Constitution the right to burn that book as well as any other book, as deplorable as you might find it.
Why would anyone want to burn one?Why waste the paper IYKWIM? ;)Think the old Sear and Roebuck and what it was used for.
The General is only trying to protect his soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines.
That might be true, but in a totally different context. Petraeus is only following the order of his CiC, and it should be obvious to everyone now that while Soetoro has always camped with the enemy of the united States, if this article has any truth to it, then it appears Petraeus is now fighting for the other side too.
I'm sorry, The US Constitution and our God given rights trump Petraeus' new found love for Islam and our enemy.
Again, if there is any truth to this article, perhaps Move One was right about General Betray-us. He has joined the enemy camp and is now fighting against our Constitutional Rights.
So you are okay with the Muslims killing our troops, just because of this idiot small church pastor? *rme*
Who got to Petraus to turn him from a soldier into a soft bureaucrat?
Except the parts of the Bible that condemn homosexual behavior
"and deplore any action that shows disrespect to any religious faith."
Except for telling a military chaplain to shut up about certain parts of the Bible and not to pray using the name of Jesus -- or else, face discharge.
Enough already. Can we just, for once, admit who we are at war with and stop worrying about making them angry?
You are both using the same argument, that Jones is responsible for the muzzies committing murder.
The muzzies are responsible.
If this puts our soldiers in danger, then we best be about the business we went there for.
WAR.
Kill as many as fast as possible. Kill them ALL.
Politically correct BULLSHIT is putting our soldiers at risk.
Let’s end that.
If burning a Koran would make them attack our troops it might work well to smoke them out.
These cowardly killers knew the UN guards would not shoot at them so they got a Freebie.
It doesn't take much to persuade a Muslim to behead someone just post a picture of their pedophile leader. So now we have to not post pictures of Mohamed and not burn Korans. Any other rules we should follow? Maybe we should just give up and let them take over. I don't think so.
The pussification of the military starts with attitudes like that.
Next time, it could be an anti-Islamic post here on FR that sends them over the edge.
So, should we ban any derogatory comments about Islam here on FR just to be safe?
We should just make them DEAD!!!!! Wherever they pop up their terrorist heads.
