Radical Indonesian Muslims Threaten Global Jihad if Koran Is Burned in Florida
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, September 7, 2010, 7:12 PM
That’s odd.
Radical Muslims have threatened global jihad and suicide bombings if the Florida church burns the Koran on Saturday.
A group of Indonesian demonstrators belonging to the Hizbut Tahrir, an Islamist organization, rally outside the US embassy in Jakarta in September 2010. The group threatened “jihad” or holy war if a US Christian group goes through with threats to publicly burn the Koran.… Read more »

Members of the Islamic group Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia hold placards during a protest in front of U.S. embassy in Jakarta September 4, 2010. Hundreds of members from the Islamic group Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia condemned a Florida church plans to hold a “Koran-burning” on September 11, which this year coincides with Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan. The placard (front) reads, “Only coward burn Qur’an. (REUTERS)

Sounds like death threats are mainstream, not the fringe of pisslam.

Global jihad and suicide bombings eh? I’m shocked! and how exactly would this be different than any other day in the Muslim world?
bob commented:
Why be scared of any threat. That is the democratic appeasment platform, I mean doctrine.
You cave once, it is like a bully, they come all of them.
FU*K Them.
If you like them go beat your wife, it is permissable in the Kookran
Joanne commented:
It is interesting that this is all over the news. If a muslim burned a Bible – it would never make the news because the media doesn’t care less if a Bible is burned – big whoop….but a Koran….gee they seize the opportunity to point out how ‘bad’ Christians really are. The left media supports muslims – how sad, when muslims are going to off them as soon as they take over. Did I say sad…I didn’t mean sad.

Muslims of the world Dont worry about the kuran burning.I am sure their will be plenty of people their to p*ss on it and put it out. If that doesnt work I am sure their is a bucket of pigs blood nearby. Maybe we can even stone it out.
Now carry on your peaceful day.

regularguy commented:
I don’t think it’s wise to burn Qu’rans, but it’s quite illustrative of the type of response it gets. Maybe it’s helpful, in a way, to expose the type of threat we face from islam, but too many wish to avoid the serious reality of the ideology that drives mohammedans to do what they do, and instead blame the rest of us for inciting the behavior that’s already there.
Ginger commented:
Whoops! Did not do right said it does not exist! It’s about the fire in Houston and the voter machines being burned up and ACORN being involved… and they are calling for Holder to come and help the demo rats to protect them from the republicans from exposing them? What a joke. Can some one post the blog right.. I am new at all of this computer stuff.

Looks like the same exact people that burn the US Flag every chance they get.
In fact, I bet SOMEONE in this crowd burned one at this rally! Just not the picture that Yahoo or the AFP is going to distribute as it shows what this crowd is really all about.

here you go..
[What happened next is what threatens everything. In the overnight/early morning hours of Saturday, August 28, a warehouse in Houston burned down. Within the warehouse were all of Harris County’s 10,000 voting machines. They were a total loss. That they were insured doesn’t change the fact that they’re gone, and the county has been scrambling ever since to replace them. Working with the state government and other counties, Harris County is moving swiftly to replace the destroyed machines and has pledged that none of the Nov. 2 polling places will close because of the fire.
That’s not good enough for the Democrats. Rather than pull together and work with the county and the state to support the Apollo-level effort to maintain the vote, the Texas Democratic Party, controlled by a Washington activist, is suing Vasquez. But even more dangerous, the Democrats have used the occasion to call for the Justice Department to step in and “monitor” Harris County’s elections.
Think about that. This is the same Justice Department, led by Attorney General Eric Holder, that keeps trying to give al-Qaeda terrorists full access to civilian courts for trial. This is the same Justice Department that is suing Arizona for enforcing an immigration law that mirrors a 70-year-old federal immigration statute. This is the same Justice Department that, as J. Christian Adams reports on PJM, has chosen not to enforce the ballot integrity provisions of the Motor Voter law. And this Justice Department represents an administration led by ACORN’s former trainer and lawyer, Barack Obama. This administration had planned to put ACORN into an important role in gathering U.S. census data this year, a plan that would certainly have gone into effect had ACORN not been exposed by Breitbart.tv in 2009.]

Joanne commented:
regularguy – you are correct.
It absolutely insane to blame people who burn a Koran for muslims potentially killing non-muslims because of it. Perhaps a normal reaction would be the burning of a Bible – but the actual killing of non-muslims? Screw them. What’s next? Non-muslim women don’t cover their heads, muslim males are allowed to rape them? Hey, this is happening all over Europe, and the muslims don’t even use this as an excuse most of the time. There is no punishment for muslims raping non-muslim women in Islam.
Chippy commented:
These muslims are cry babies just like lil barry. I mean, someone start passing out the diapers, baby formula and baby sitters. If your a muslim you gotta be a little but embarrassed. I mean really?
Chippy commented:
Total dramaqueens.
Joanne commented:
ShawnB #16 – the Koran is not a holy book, unless you believe a holy book should have a prophet who sodomized and had sex with children and slaughtered non-muslims at will…and I mean cutting off their heads.
Stanley commented:
Perhaps, they may consider that the translation of the Koran they now have, is by the burning of all other translations of the Koran. Now that’s something to protest about.
Larkin commented:
Okay, look. You don’t stick a five-iron in a hornets nest and stir it up. This preacher is a complete moron.
That said, anything that causes islam to tip it’s hand,(oh yeah, it thinks it’s holding all the cards), may not be the disaster it’s being cracked up to be.

An open letter from the founder and president of the Alliance
of Iranian Women. September 5, 2010 – by Manda Zand Ervin
Speaker Pelosi: Stand Up for Muslim Women, Not Islamists Like Rauf!
Honorable Speaker Pelosi:
I heard you say that the people who oppose the construction
of the Ground Zero mosque should be investigated.
Investigate me. I oppose the construction of that mosque.
This mosque, built in such close proximity to Ground Zero, is intended to send a message to America and another message to the Muslims who are gravitating toward human rights laws and secularism. We are sure that this mosque will cause nothing but division and justified ill will towards Muslims in this country.
I came to America as a political refugee, fleeing from the Islamic rule
in Iran that subsumed a secular, woman-respecting government. As a human, woman, and a mother, I could not live under nor subject my daughter to such brutal, barbarian tyranny. What I see now occurring
in my new home, America, is Islamists forcing their policies in bits and pieces, here and there. It is terribly disconcerting, not only to me but to
all Iranian Americans and the large majority of Muslims who came to America to live in peace, freedom, and prosperity.
Madam Speaker: The Islamists are using the laws of this greatest of democracies to implement their ideology in any way they can — whether by propaganda, intimidation, the misuse of political correctness or anti-discrimination policies, or the minority status that this society puts
at their disposal. Plus the most powerful of all tools, the money — the limitless petrodollars coming from foreign Islamist dictators with anti-democratic agendas.
Because the American Constitution calls for the separation of religion and government, the Justice Department, the ACLU, and others constantly minimize the influence Christianity and Judaism have on American secular society. What we, American Muslims, wonder: why is there an exception for Islam from the rules applied to others, even though the Islamic human rights record is deeply problematic and contrary to all the civil rights and individual rights laws of this great republic?
Why is Islam given a pass that is not
given to Christianity or Judaism?
Madam Speaker: You are a powerful woman in the world, but you don’t care much about the human rights of hundreds of millions of women and children who need the support of the people like you to gain their individual freedom. You claim to be for the women’s right to choose, but then you ignore the right of women and children to have human dignity!
A large majority of America’s Muslims, women and girls,
are living under sharia laws. Stripped of their human dignity.
You support the construction of the mosque but you don’t support the women and girls who are forced to wear hijabs against their will. Muslim women and girls live in seclusion, on the fringes of society, without recourse because of their families’ religion. In the name of religious freedom, political correctness in America only pleases the patriarchal hierarchy of the Muslim world. In the name of religious freedom, America permits Muslim communities to run a state within a state, perpetuating the patriarchal crimes against helpless women and children who should have their constitutional rights defended.
When “Muslim men” are given extra privileges that are definitely not granted to those of other religions, my Muslim sisters and I see this
as the gravest discrimination committed in America.
Madam Speaker: We came to America to live in peace and harmony with Americans. We don’t want to be identified by our religion. We want to be identified by our cultures and the content of our characters. We want to
be Americans, not Muslim-Americans.
We don’t want our girls forced by their fathers to wear hijabs, and to be embarrassed among their peers in American schools. We want to be free to practice — or not practice — our religion. We also want to be free to “choose.”
Unfortunately, politicians like you have chosen to cater to the worst among us — the Muslim dictators and the so-called community leaders. Ignoring the rest of us, Muslim women and children, as if we don’t exist.
The Islamists will not stop until Islam rules the world. Ayatollah
Khomeini declared that Iran was a platform toward a Muslim world.
All of us American Muslims know that this is the most democratic country on Earth, and we are well aware of the Constitution and the meaning of freedom of religion in America. We luxuriate in that freedom, and we celebrate it, and we defend it.
You know well that the question here is not freedom of religion, or respect for Muslims! This is nothing but pure politics — sacrificing humanity in the name of religion for the sake of ideological politics.
We want America to treat Islam like it treats Christianity and Judaism, and to stop exempting Muslims from requirements imposed on others.
We want Islam to be challenged by the same questioning, criticism, and control that is applied to other religions. Please stop pampering Islam to appease the terrorists and dictators.
Madam Speaker: The Age of Enlightenment changed the face of Judaism and Christianity, but Islam remains trapped in the 6th century. Here we have the Constitution and law. Apply it evenly to all — no exceptions for Islam. Support freedom from religion for the women and children suffering under Islamic law in America.

The same people who are puking on their shoes at the thought of some crappy Korans being burned fought to defend the right to suspend a crucifix in urine as an example of art.
Maybe the solution to the contretemps is to suspend Korans in pig urine and call it art. Who could complain about that?

So they are calling for a global Jihad? I never knew they stopped the first one. Indonesia? That’s Barry’s former home, right. Makes you proud, doesn’t it. I want to vomit, at the people that put human trash like Obama in our White House. It should be torn down, and built again. It’s forever tainted with him. It’s like an intruder coming into your home. You’d have to move, because you’d always feel violated. He makes my skin crawl.

Brooklyn commented:
FREE Speech Baby !
Read it and weep Democrats…
If you can burn a bible, burn a flag, burn a cross, burn Our Constitution, then it is perfectly acceptable.
This is a statement, exercising One’s free speech.
ABC news on the radio today, covered this with predictable fashion, airing a Muslim Activists condemnation, as well as Obama’s disastrous DOJ comments from behind the scenes – which he supposedly said. ABC actually referenced this as a human rights abuse, via the female Muslim’s claims.
It is all a big political facade.
Holder tossed out a clear case of voter intimidation, he and this Administration has acted the most intolerant and show absolutely no empathy for the opinions of a vast majority of Americans – especially those who wisely oppose this troubling Mosque intended for Ground Zero.
Buring a Koran may be a bit crude, but they have every right to express themselves in the USA.
Thank GOD for the FREE United States!

I walk by the GZ mosque site all the time. Most New Yorkers believe it to be a laughing stock. It’s funny seeing young leftists outside the site sticking up for the “worldly” crybabies who can’t handle opposition or criticism. This is fkn New York. Real NYC muslims agree.
Scott commented:
How many muslims decried the beheading of hostages by al Qaeda in Iraq??? As Sherman said of southerners in the Civil War, “we are not fighting an enemy Army, we are fighting an enemy people.” Islamic fundamentalists are an enemy people. Ridicule them, shame them, and kill them by the truckload just as we did to Japanese and Germans in WWII…It worked then and it will work now…
Al Hussein Bin Obama's brother in a mud hut commented:
As much as I detest Islam burning Qurans is inappropriate; you need to be a little more subtle. For example, islamists are building a mosque at Ground Zero as a triumph to their conquest but they are doing it under the banner of a “community center.” It’s so outlandish only a neanderthal or liberal would fall for such nonsense, but here we are in the Age of Stupidity where an affirmative action community organizer has taken the US economy over the cliff and muslims get to build a mosque on the grave of our dead. Only in America.
Ang commented:
Dont necessarily agree with what that church is doing but its quite obvious who the intollerant people are. I heard the pastor speak briefly today and I believe he is very succintly making his point about how many really radical muslims there are and how many so called followers of the religion of peace. Oh I dont know what to think about this country anymore. One thought is just bring it and lets get it all over with.

RickZ commented:
“I studied the Koran a great deal. I came away from that study with the conviction there have been few religions in the world as deadly to men as that of Muhammad. So far as I can see, it is the principal cause of the decadence so visible today in the Muslim world and, though less absurd than the polytheism of old, its social and political tendencies are in my opinion to be feared, and I therefore regard it as a form of decadence rather than a form of progress in relation to paganism itself.” ~ Alexis-Charles-Henri Clérel de Tocqueville (1805 – 1859)
Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.
RickZ commented:
Valerie @ # 41, please explain how islam is a religion.
down with dems commented:
Burning a book, burning paper, doesn’t hurt anyone. Global jihad = death, destruction, and mayhem. Clearly the distinction between civilization and Islam has been shown. Backing down and not burning will be weakness, but burning invites an escalation of hostilities.
Don’t be surprised it police/soldiers prevent this burning on national security grounds. On the other hand, the Dems might be hoping that letting it actually happen will help them out somehow, since it will definitely stir up a whole lot of trouble.
If they can burn effigies and flags, we can burn books… there will be consequences, though.

Hear Muslims, my G-D does not need my help, he is completely capable of taking care of his self and me for that matter. You on the other hand must kill and stone, and whip people or you can’t keep them believing in your pediphile god. Belief that doesn’t come from the heart is not belief.
Don’t you dare threaten me or mine because we will not stand still for it. We will fight back with everything we have, and you wont like the result of that.
I don’t believe that the book should be burned, just to burn it, but the hell with your threats, the only ones you scare are Demoncraps who are cowards anyway. Keep up the threats and you just might be awfully sorry.

Francesca commented:
I don’t like this book burning idea, but the pastor could do a lot to educate people as to what savagery is contained in the Koran in other ways. For example, he could put a quotation from it on the sign in front of the church, and change it every few days. Everyone who passes by would begin to take notice that maybe, just maybe Islam is NOT a religion of peace after all. He could do the same in the church bulletin. He could send out weekly emails to his people, etc.
All ways to get people thinking.
S. Wolf commented:
Valerie #41
The Koran is a foreign law book, not a religious book..
‘The time has come to question if Islam is protected under our First Amendment rights to freedom of religion. Yes, everyone in America has the right to freedom of religion, but Islam is not a religion. Religious faith is only a part of Islam. The rest is a socially engineered society with its own laws and customs that seriously conflict with American law.
Is Great Britain a religion because they have the Church of England? Of course not. Britain has an established charter, civil and criminal laws, and a society that respects those laws. Islam has the Qur’an that provides the governing charter, complete with laws, punishment, and social behavior for its people in addition to its religious teachings. If Islam is a religion, then Britain is also.
We must recognize that religion is only one aspect of Islam‘s Qur’an. The rest of this charter advances ideas, social behavior, and laws that are in direct conflict with American and western laws and values. Teddy Roosevelt once said that to live in America, immigrants must have undivided loyalty to America and to no one else. How is that possible for Muslims who swear loyalty to Islam where their governing laws are found in the Qur‘an?
What legitimate religion would demand that its members either kill or convert people of other faiths? What legitimate religion is intent on imposing its own laws on the rest of the entire world? If Islam were just about praying to Allah and worshiping Mohammed and nothing more, we would not be having a problem with Islamism and Islamic terrorists. Islam has a global mission to take over and run the world according to Islamic Shariah law. How can we call that a religion?
What legitimate religion in this country comes with its own civil laws that take precedence over national, state, and local laws? No, Islam is not a religion. It is a governing doctrine that not only dictates religious beliefs, but also social behavior that includes laws, penalties and punishments, not by God, but by people if the laws are not obeyed. Islam is a form of government, not a religion. It does not belong here. We already have government under our Constitution (sort of).’
Islam Is Not A Religion, It Is Foreign Law
So Mohammedans ‘threaten’ global jihad if their Koran is burned? Well, they already were. Was it a Koran burning that caused them to fly planes into the WTC? No, that’s what they do. It is as though the Nazis threatened global conquest if Mein Kampf were burnt, or Communists threatened global revolution if Das Kapital was burned.. that was already their goal.

Hey, c’mon, you Muslims !!!
How can you hold *US* responsible for what a “tiny minority of extremists” do? The USA is a big country, with lots of freedoms you may not agree with. Here, people are allowed to burn their own property — whether it’s a US flag, or an effigy of some government figure, or a book. (It falls under freedom of speech — look it up.)
As I recall, the “tiny minority of extremists” has been YOUR excuse for the last decade or so, every time radical Muslims have decided to blow Infidels up or cut their heads off… and in this case, with the Qurans, nobody even gets killed.
How about it, guys? If the excuse is good enough that WE are supposed to accept it from YOU every time a Muslim jackass goes all jihad on us, how about all of YOU sit down, shut up, and accept it as OUR excuse to YOU?
Hmmm?

Andreas K. commented:
Only problem is, they are NOT radical. They are following Mohammed’s orders, that is all.
It’s also funny that burning a koran is so bad, while burning Mein Kampf would be totally acceptable. It’s funny because the koran and Mein Kampf are on the same level.
The koran is only declared taboo because it’s used by a fascist ideology which is mascerading as religion.

Its not just the economy or the Healthcare boondoggle which has turned Americans against Obama. The President of the United States should not have a dog in this Muslim Mosque fight. Obama is incapable of running a country and leading its people without having them at each other’s throats.
Ground Zero looks much the same as it did right after the attacks. Why has their been no effort on the part of Muslims to rebuild these buildings as a monument to those 3,000 innocent American people who died there? Instead, we are supposed to worry about the Muslims sensitivity? It makes no sense but then nothing Obama says or does makes any sense.

Gen. Petraeus has asked them not to do so because it will threaten our people and mission in ashcanistan. He’s right but . . . if the leftist media whores were not bloating this tiny little protest into global headlines, the koranimal savages wouldn’t even know about it.
But unfortunately they have, because it supports their “islamaphobic” meme, so it has become a matter of face. For devotees of the cult of islam, any accommodation at this point is evidence of weakness to be exploited. So the imams will be urging attacks to “destroy the infidel,” but if it happens, they will do the same thing.
Bottom line, the RoP (c) will react with their customary Stone Age charm in either case. It’s time for the civilized world to understand it cannot “coexist” with this unreasoning mass of rabid zealots and slap them down so hard they don’t threaten us again. Reducing their surroundings to the same primitive level as their cult would seem a good first step.

This event coming up the 11th of burning the Koran seems to me to be a good idea.

Why not, the Muslums burn our flag and have been trying to destroy America for years.
Ang commented:
Another thought, lets bring the cockroaches out into the light. Its not like they really need a reason to declare jihad on Americans, HELLO thats already been done. So lets REALLY find out who the enemy is and how many their REALLY are. I dont know Gen Patraeus, Im not nor have I ever been in the military but it seems to me that if I was fighting a war I would really want to know all the enemy not just the ones who play nice then would be willing to stab me in the back at any time. Sorry but I dont trust a one of em.

“Gen. Petraeus has asked them not to do so because it will threaten our people and mission in ashcanistan. He’s right but…”
He’s not. It’s very foolish of him. And well, they are already facing fascist hostiles out to kill them. What’s going to change after burning this vile book? They’ll be facing fascist hostiles out to kill them.
Honestly, that statement by Petraeus is utterly stupid.

where are all the peaceful moderate muslims, calming their flock and urging tolerance and preaching peace… oh yea that only applies to americans. LIBERALS SUCK

“You don’t stick a five-iron in a hornets nest and stir it up. ”
So you consider Muslims to be little more than insects? Animals, incapable of controlling themselves?
Me, I think they’re people. They’re people fully capable of making moral choices, who CHOOSE to be violent.

“Every year the Secret Society of the Bohemian Grove burns a human effigy to the pagan god Baal Hammond . Why no repudiation of this offensive ritual from Washington DC elites ?”
Because nobody gives a rip about your conspiracist fantasies?

Petraeus is a tool. The government is going to try to stop this action. They will probably have to arrest the pastor. I hope this pastor is the real deal. Get ready for the full MSM spin/setup as a cover for this fellow exercising his constitutional rights. This will be a lesson to all the fence sitters. You no longer have a right to free speech (FL) or to defend yourself against attack (AZ).
The O made a mockery of his swearing in. At the time, I thought he was just a hapless idiot. I was wrong. “…but never rule out malice”.

much prefer burning books than the alternative (ie: burning
Mosques & Islamists like they burn Churches & Christians)..
please don’t paint all Muslims with ONE brush..
that’s exactly what the ISLAMISTS & OBAMA want US to do..

The place where Obama spent some of his childhood years is persecuting Christians.

These anti-Christian sentiments were likely prevalent when Obama was there and would appear that he soaked them up just like the teachings of Jeremiah Wright.

I am getting really tired of this Muslim sensitivity. Freedom of speech is on par with freedom of religion. And how ironic is it that the military people are afraid of their backers, the US citizens, are getting pissed and taking note of how one way this sensitivity seems to be. If we are at war over Muslim Extremism and its actions, then we should be pissed the F*ck off and intolerant. Right? If we are willing to send our sons and daughters to fight and die, we should be pissed off. This country needs to give up on the notion that somehow we are going to change the lack of respect for human life and and the will of Muslims to kill the infidel. There is no such thing as winning in this fight and we will never have peace by being nice. Its not in the Muslim doctrine to accept and respect other people’s religious choices and to live peacefully amongst them, let alone amongst the factions within the Muslim world.
I personally do not have the desire to burn a Qur’an, but just like the legal right to build the Mosque in NYC for religious freedom, everyone has the right to burn a Qur’an as an expression of their freedom of speech. If Muslims will not show sensitivity, why the fu*ck should anyone else? We all learned to treat people the way we want to be treated. Its not a one way street. Its unbelievable to me the eggshells this country is walking on regarding Muslims, and how its a non sequitur that all Muslims are terrorists or terrorist sympathizers. Sorry but, I did not see any Muslim organizations protesting in the streets admonishing 9/11 or any of the bombings all over the world in the name of Allah and efforts to kill the infidel. All we see is the American flag being burned over and over and intolerance by Muslims of other religions and Countries where peoples of different religions live in peace.
If there are truly peaceful Muslim’s out there, you have alot of convincing to do. And it better be a very clear and opposing message to what people believe Muslims to be. There are many sects of religions that believe the same things, but vary in how they practice. Islam needs a new sect that is openly and publicly vocal against Muslim Extremism around the world if thats what they truly believe. The fact that it has not happened yet makes me believe that the belief is just not there. Silence is what makes me believe the violence and extremism is at least condoned and even privately celebrated.

re: [that he soaked them up just like

of course he did, he also attended “special Koran classes”, which is why he can recite the Adhan in Arabic.. Indonesians also don’t see Obama as an apostate, they see Obama as a crusader for the cause of Islam, most likely much thanks to Rev. Wright for Obama’s Audacity of Hope book..

thank you, but the truth is.. i learn from all of the posters in here, as most all contribute their knowledge which adds to mine [disclaimer: there are a few exceptions, fortunately, we know who they are, unfortunately, they haven't got a clue]..

you are also correct.. but the fact is, we are damned if we do and damned if we don’t, ergo, with all due respect to King David, i ask myself, what would the soldiers say??
It Has Always Been The Soldier
It is the soldier,
not the President who gives us democracy.
It is the soldier,
not the Congress who takes care of us.
It is the soldier,
not the Reporter who has given us Freedom of Press.
It is the soldier,
not the Poet who has given us Freedom of Speech.
It is the soldier,
not the campus [community] Organizer who
has given us the Freedom to Demonstrate.
It is the soldier,
who salutes the flag;
who serves beneath the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag,
that allows the protester to burn the flag.
~ Father Dennis O’Brien, US Marine Corp. Chaplain
God Bless America!
God Bless Soldiers everywhere for putting THEIR
lives on the line to protect us ALL from terrorism!
and i hear a different tune..

Judgement has come to America. Once all politicians were Christian. Then prayers were taken out of schools and public offices. Now, quoting the Bible is considered hate-speech. Soon, Great Tribulation. The world has gone mad. Come, Lord Jesus.
Pawn commented:
I just had an idea. If the muzzies think Obama is one of them, then they should blame Obama for letting the book burning take place. After all it is his country.
Sam Ponticello commented:
The proposed “kookran burning” will result in the exposure of the deadly curse on mankind that is islam. Once the Western World realizes just how fanatical MOST of the followers of islam truly are and that the worship DEATH, not LIFE, then we will be united to deal with them!
Burn, Baby, Burn!

Let me get this right: if that church burns qur’ans, the muslims will kill themselves?
Bryce commented:
Muslims and Islam are anti jesus christ that is why they want to stop burning koran books. The reminder that muslims and Islam are to to burn in HELL eternally makes them mad. Good we want to make the Islams and muslims mad as hell because they kill and murder American citizens who have freedom. Bryce Guenther Fredericktown Missouri
