You folks do remember that terrible fiasco, right?
We should not be afraid of anyone. The decision to not burn the koran should not be based in fear-- it should be based in wisdom and respect.
To say that this event will not have international repercussions is to be naive.

Jermyn... they don't care. They just want to make a "statement" even if it makes the situation worse for our troops or incites reprisals against innocent Americans at home or abroad. For them, they just want to beat a drum and appear strong and tough. The rioting, outrage, and inflamed hostilties that will result are just not important to them. If anyone is killed over this pastor's actions they'll just say, "See, Muslims are violent. Burn more Korans!" And it starts a crazy cycle of increasing violence and hostilities. Some people love watching the news and hearing about how Muslims killed more troops or how Muslims killed more innocent people. In their minds it validates their feelings towards Muslims. They don't care if lives are lost.
