Has Pastor Terry Jones given Osama Bin Laden, an early Christmas present?

[Bobbisox]

Not nearly as silly as it sounds here, Pastor Jones is having a Koran burning ceremony in a little corner of Florida on Saturday, meanwhile thousands of miles away we have young men and women fighting in Afghanistan to rid the world of terrorism!
Already Muslims in Afghanistan and Pakistan have taken to the streets to protest and quite frankly I don't blame them, this 'man of the cloth' and I use the term loosely, wants arresting for inciting trouble...which will have far reaching consequences

[Sqad]

Would the Muslims make a song and dance about "some" Muslims burning the Bible................I very much doubt it.

[craft1948]

He should be sectioned.....

[Bbbananas]

He's inciting trouble, yes. It may have consequences, yes.
But there is a part of me that can understand why he should want to....

[Ankou]

"Would the Muslims make a song and dance about "some" Muslims burning the Bible"

i know some who would. they'd consider it disrespectful.

[Bobbisox]

Rightly or wrongly salla, sqad and craft, these Fanatics are just waiting in the wings for such an opportunity, and he has handed it to them on a platter

[mccfluff]

its daft, what does it achieve - nothing apart from inciting yet more racial hatred, stupid t0ssers like him need locking up

[brionon]

It's called FREEDOM of speech and action. Unheard of in Islam.

[Davethedog]

The publicity given to this will get people killed. The act of it will just give the fundamentalists more fuel to thier recruitment fire.

He should be stopped at all costs, not because I actualy object to him doing it, but because the people who do object will kill because of it.

You also should question the media's part in the publicising of it, as Geoff Lloyd said on the radio yesterday, if a vicar in Bridlington was going to burn a Koran do you think it would make the US national news?

[Bobbisox]

true bri, these people are fanatical and will go to no ends to cause harm to the West now...if this goes ahead!

[Sqad]

Muslim fanatics don´t need an excuse, they just need opportunity and I can´t see that this gives them more of an opportunity............more of a desire...yes.

[Ankou]

so the pastor isn't fanatical.... ?

[Bobbisox]

desire, opportunity, same thing sqad,
can we assume the people coming back in body bags will increase now through this idiots ideology?

[Sqad]

ankou....yes he is, but at the moment he hasn't blown any aircraft out of the sky.......as far as I know.

[Sqad]

bobbi....I don´t think so.

[mccfluff]

desire and opportunity aren't the same thing at all....

[Bobbisox]

he wouldn't need to sqad!
plenty of these so called Martyrs of Islam, will do the job for him...now

[Bobbisox]

not sure the fanatics of any religion can differentiate fluff

[Ankou]

ah, so your opinion is based on sound bites and daily mail headlines ?

muslims blow up aircraft
west invade iraq and afghanistan
pastor burns quran
muslims react


if his actions result in the death of even one person, then you would stand by his actions ?

[Bobbisox]

who ankou?

[Sqad]

ankou.......in my opinion you are blowing this, like the press, out of all proportion.

How will you know whether or not the next Islamic outrage is due to our mate...the Pastor?
