Subject: RE: BS: Burning Korans
I think the thread is turning in an 'ugly' direction.

Naming all the things that Moslems have done that are bad is not going to make this man's cause right. For every Moslem that has done something wrong there must be hundred's of thousands that have not. This man's 'stunt' has not just upset Moslems, it has upset all sensible people who wish for peace and who are fed up of relatives and friends ending up in body bags.

You can quote *some* Muslims who have burned flags but please try not to blame all Moslems for their actions. No more than the Moslems should blame us for this man's proposed actions.

Two wrongs never will make a right. Almost suggesting that this man should be allowed to do what he wanted because similar things have been done on the other side will never make for peace nor make sense.

'We' are the ones who are supposed to be trying to show the world that we wish for peace and that our ways are good. When has revenge ever done any good?
