Terry Jones Agrees Not To Burn Korans

Terry Jones Agrees Not To Burn Korans



~~~~~~

Commentary

  • 1) He helped unite America and the International Community behind Muslims.
  • 2) This man showed how extreme Islamaphobia is in America, and that it must be condemned.
  • 3) Through joint efforts, and councils of 2 dozen interfaith organizations, with General Patraeus and President Obama all calling out this disgrace, we were able to stop the burning of the Holy Qur'an.

~~~~~~~

This is a victory for Muslims through and through, and shows the power of Tolerance, understanding, and good American people in general.

~~~~~~~~~~~

I would like to say however, that while the Mosque in New york constitutes a tolerant action, and one that was sanctioned by the Mayor of New York and unanimously allowed by the mayoral council, it is sad to see it go to stop such an intolerant action as the Quran burnings.

But at the end of the day, if the only way to stop the burnings is to move the Mosque, than it's a price every Muslim is willing to pay.

It's just sad that someone had to pay that price, and the influence of good Americans was not strong enough to stop this extremist pastor.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

UPDATE:



1) The Pastor lied that he had gotten the New York Mosque moved. That is not going to happen, which is a step forward for Islamic tolerance and American ideals.

2) The pastor is saying quote: "We are, of course, now against any other group burning Qurans, We would right now ask no one to burn Qurans. We are absolutely strong on that. It is not the time to do it."
