US Must Condemn Koran Burning - Karzai
Pastor Terry Jones has claimed the FBI told him a $2.4m bounty had been put on his head in Pakistan. In interviews he said he was "saddened" by the violence.
He had promised in September not to set fire to the book, then he and his congregation discussed shredding, shooting, or dunking it in water instead. Jones said his desire to shed light on the "dangerous book" won out, so the burning was streamed on the internet ,with Arabic subtitles to reach Muslims. "For some of them," he said, "it could be an awakening." From Here.

ReplyDeleteI remember walking through the Turkish neighborhoods back in the late 60's early 70's to my grandmothers house when I used to visit Germany.
Even back then the Germans were afraid of the Turks {Gastarbeiters].
