Last September I wrote about all the hoopla about a Florida pastor who was threatening to burn the Koran on September 11th, and how other “hate pastors” like Jeremiah Wright and Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist church were grabbing undeserved media attention.
The Florida pastor finally carried through on his threat to burn a copy of the Koran, confirming that a “trial” was held for the Koran last month and that it was subsequently burned.
And once again, the illiterate Afghans (who probably can’t even read the Koran) went on a rampage in direct response, beheading two UN workers and killing five others. Five demonstrators were also killed. Afghan rioters then attacked a NATO base in a suicide attack, wounding three soldiers.
This man’s act has lead directly to the deaths of thirteen people. How many more will die because of his unthinking actions?

Agree with you! But the small community of protesters (killers)get the press. Afgans in general support our involvement in their country. Hope these killings teaches the Koran burners a lesson in love and acceptance of differences. Jesus would!
