Florida Minister Says He'll Burn Qurans on 9/11; Troops Brace for Blowback
A Gainesville minister plans to burn copies of the Quran on Sept. 11, and he's taking heat for it from the U.S. military.
Pastor Terry Jones, head of the 50-member Dove World Outreach Center, said, "We must send a clear message to the radical element of Islam. We will no longer be controlled and dominated by their fears and threats."
Jones' demonstration did indeed draw retaliatory threats from the Taliban in Afghanistan and a fearful response from Gen. David Petraeus, who said such incendiary behavior "could endanger (U.S.) troops and could endanger the overall effort."

People like Jones make me embarrassed to be American. What has this country come to?

Ken:
There are certainy more important threats to the State of Florida than the Quran. If Pastor Jones is trying to save us from the beast... where is his outrage with Godless, Jewish ownership of our press and their control of virtually all issues of our lives? That is secondary to the Quran?
It is so safe to be tough against Islam but he wouldn't dare enrage his Jewish masters.
