Quran Burning
Tomorrow there is a possibility that the Quran, the holy book of Islam, will be burned near ground zero. Despite pressure from multiple sources, including the Federal Government, Rev Terry Jones says he will go through with his plan. This just one day after he said he was not going to do the burning. I am all for freedom of speech, but when that speech endangers not only me, but an entire country, a line has to be drawn. He also will endanger our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. When Al Qadea gets word of this, our already terrible reputation will get even worse. They might even respond, and what they do will be a worse then burning a couple of Bibles or Torahs. If they take action, it will most likely be violent, something like 9/11. 9/11, a day we all remember. I remember I was across the street in my neighbors watching the TV. I was too young to understand the full effect of what was going on, but I knew it was bad. Rev Terry Jones could bring that day upon us once again. He is making America look like the bumbling idiot everyone else seems to think we are. If he goes trough with this, this country might suffer major consequences.

I agree. If Rev Terry Jones actually goes through with this our country could have major problems. It will end up offending Al Qadea and things could get violent for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
ReplyDeleteI one hundred percent agree. The reverend is being selfish and stupid. He doesn't realize that affect that his actions will have on the people of America. He is childish and acting with the idea of, "an eye for an eye." By burning something important to "them", will not benefit "us." He is also raising more predjudice against Islamic people living in our country and may cause them to rebel. Not only will people in Iraq rebel, people in America may too, causing more danger and destruction.
