Ok, so let's lay out all the cards on the table.
#1. Those religious fanatics you are so worried about are burning our flag all the time correct?
#2. You think we should be worried about "fueling" the hatred those religious fanatics feel about us correct?
Now, can you point out the problem? Do you think that by not burning those Islamic books that somehow they will magically stop hating us? Or is this just an excuse to try and appease radical Islam. If those "religious fanatics" don't care about burning our flag, why should I give two shakes of a piss care about someone burning their books?
i am more worried that a video of a American burning the Koran would be used by radical Islamist as part of their propaganda of us being the "great satan" and would make moderate Muslims more likely to support the Islamic fundamentalists against what the fundamentalists portray as the great enemy.
and let us not forget that Islam is the second largest religion on earth, and the only religion that has more followers than Islam is Catholicism.
