U.S.: Terry Jones: A pastor, a rabbi, and two bigots walk into a courtroom …

  • Say what you will about Terry Jones and his obvious attempt to draw attention by protesting at the country’s biggest mosque, but dude knows how to wear a faded leather jacket. Too bad we can’t separate the bigot from the sweet threads. Despite being barred from doing so, Jones plans to protest at the Islamic Center of America next week. Jones incited violence in the Middle East by burning a copy of the Koran about a month ago. (By the way, the rabbi next to him, Nachum Shifren, is no saint, either.) source

Politics: Terry Jones threatened to burn the Koran. His prize? A free car.

  • dumb Anti-Muslim Florida pastor Terry Jones sparked an annoying national controversy after threatening to burn the Koran on 9/11.
  • smart A New Jersey car dealership offered Jones a new car if Jones didn’t burn the Koran. Jones didn’t do it, but not for that reason.
  • dumb Weeks after the incident, Jones’ church called the car dealership to see if the deal was still valid. It was. And now Jones is getting a free car. source
  • » So, what did he get? Jones got a 2011 Hyundai Accent, valued at $13,600. Which in some ways makes us sick to our stomachs. This guy created one of the craziest trumped-up controversies of the past year, and he stands to benefit financially. Disgusting.

Politics: Gen. David Petraeus to Pastor Terry Jones: You’re gonna get us killed

  • It could endanger troops and it could endanger the overall effort in Afghanistan. Even the rumor that it might take place has sparked demonstrations such as the one that took place in Kabul yesterday. Were the actual burning to take place, the safety of our soldiers and civilians would be put in jeopardy and accomplishment of the mission would be made more difficult.
  • Gen. David Petraeus • Saying what should be fairly obvious: If “Burn a Koran Day” takes place, it’s going to greatly complicate the counter-insurgency in Afghanistan. A lot of people outside of the military would agree with him, but the fact of the matter is, they already have proof that it’s rustled up the natives. Oh yeah, Petraeus mentions that burning Korans is something the Taliban does. So put that in your pipe and smoke it, Terry. source
