Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (09.10.10)
Respect , tolerance , freedom of religion has also to be the rule in muslim states , if muslims want this all in the Western countries they come to live in . We should tolerate them , respect their beliefs , allow them to build mosques in our countries , but they don't act with reciprocity . If you give , you can receive . Untill they don't show this reciprocity , we should not give them anythying anymore . We have conceded already much too much .
69. READ WHAT GERMAN JEWS REALLY THINK
GERMAN JEW ,   BERLIN   (09.10.10)
AS A UKRAINIAN BORN GERMAN JEW I SUPPORT THE KORAN BURNING IN THE USA !!! MUSLIMS ARE BURNING ALL FLAGS AND BOOKS OF THE WORLD AND LOVE TO READ "MEIN KAMPF". MUSLIMS KILL ALL NON MUSLIMS AND USE WOMAN FOR VIOLENCE. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO NEED EDUCATION AND REFORMATION !!! MUSLIMS ARE EVIL. NOT ALL MUSLIMS ARE TERRORISTS BUT ALL TERRORISTS ARE MUSLIMS. GOD BLESS THOSE WHO ARE AGAINST THE EVIL !!! STOP APPEASEMENT. SPEAK OUT AGAINST ISLAM ! GOD BLESS MICHAEL SAVAGE.

'Respect , tolerance , freedom of religion has also to be the rule in muslim states , if muslims want this all in the Western countries they come to live in .' You can't be serious! This would be surrender and would mean that we adopt the 'lifestyle' of the Ayatollahs. Isn't that exactly what they want? Respect, tolerance and freedom of religion are *our* values and don't need any external requirements. Just that you don't get me wrong. When talking about 'freedom of religion', I mean the constitutional right. This means that Muslims can build mosques, were veils, pray to Allah, etc. I do not mean 'the freedom to do whatever you want'. Our constitution protects people, but it also strongly *demands*, and everybody has to follow. Those who don't (terrorism, sharia-law, hate preach, etc.) act illegal and are to be punished.
71. Fluffi , 70
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (09.10.10)
Why surrender ? they HAVE to give us , the westerners , the rights they have in our regions . Otherwise they should NOT have this freedom ,even when it appears in a constitution .
72. #71, Charles
Fluffi ,   Germany   (09.10.10)
I got your point and I disagree. I give people their rights and freedoms because *I* want to. It's the way *I* want to live. I don't do this to do anybody a favour.
73. The West has propagated this myth since 9/11 in the face of
chris ,   wales   (09.10.10)
While not approving of the proposed actions of US Pastor Terry Jones, what has disturbed me greatly is the lengths to which the West has gone to appease Islam, the so called 'religion of peace'. The West has propagated this myth since 9/11 in the face of damning evidence to the contrary which conclusively proves the bottom line that Islam is a religion of violence. Events in Gainesville and around the World have shown that the West is afraid of the ruthless violence against Christians, Jews and allied servicemen should the proponents of Islam feel that they have been insulted. Having already witnessed the International Islamic furore over the 'cartoon' issue we need to be aware of the violence the allegedly 'peaceful' religion is capable of. We must also not ignore how it's adherents are prepared to treat with disdain the memory of thousands of innocent civilians murdered by Islamic terrorists in New York, where Muslims are prepared to provoke, denigrate and offend the families of these victims by voicing support for a Mosque's construction near the scene of the atrocity. How different was the World's reaction when in 2002 Palestinian gunmen desecrated Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity and used Holy Bibles as toilet paper at the very scene of the birth of Jesus Christ. The International community bent over backwards to condone their actions and eventually arranged for their release overseas.
74. 72 , Fluffi , give and give
Charles ,   Petach Tikvas   (09.10.10)
untill they have taken anything you have . But you won't receive anything in return ; no freedom , no rights for you .
75. #74, Charles, give and demand
Fluffi ,   Germany   (09.10.10)
You are wrong by assuming that I would classify the freedoms of others higher than my own. Both are equal. I give people their rights and I demand them to unconditionally respect mine, be sure.
76. Fluffi , i was wrong . You will not need to give
Charles ,   Petachg Tikva   (09.10.10)
They will take everything by themselve . They will respect your rights untill they have taken everything , be sure . As an ex West European i know how it's going on .
77. No different?
David ,   USA   (09.10.10)
On one hand is a nut Pastor burning books holy to a large group of people, and on the other hand is a religious minority building a community center with worship space for all religions. The two don't compare, period
78. Torah would affrim burning all types of religious items
Adam   (09.10.10)
The only way we will ever see peace in this world is if virtuall all "religious" books are burned and we return to Moshe (aka pHub, Moses) because G-d commanded no adding. (mouth or written).
79. Tiny Jewish Com. making 2 much noise
Pickbetterleaders ,   Jerusalem Israel   (09.10.10)
There are barely 100,000 registerd Jews in all of Germanys 80 million plus population & they are scatterd in dozens and dozens of small & vulnarable communities & are sure to suffer from the uncessary demands & pronouncements coming from the the Jewish Community"leaders" there. Charlotte Knobloch is always hysterical about something .A poll today said the minister forced to resign would garner 20% of voters in an election. The Germans valued this mans expertise & have a legitimate grudge with Isam in Germany even Merkel said so yesterday. German Jews should start choosing their leaders more carefully.All the old sterotypes of Jews calling the shots in Germany are being heard.
80. N.39
zorro ,   far away   (09.10.10)
Han, I am 110% sure you have NEVER read the Coran. If you don't know...shutup!
81. to #2 that got nothing to do with Islam
ghostq   (09.12.10)
go read about crystal night only than you will see y jews don't like burning books, any books, for that matters it can be salman rushdi book, something Muslim did, so before you get any conclutions look for y.
82. burning of mohammedan verses
ma davar ,   helsinki finland   (09.12.10)
burning some paper is a daily activity in many nordic households - for warming in the fireplace - yes you should not stir up the ignorant in vain
83. Does Koran describe Jews as Monkeys or Pigs?.
Roland Seener ,   London England   (09.12.10)
If this is so,German Jewry especially should not whitewash ! Proudness of being Jewish should be first .and umbrage taken if confirmed to be true. I am giving the Koran the benefit of the doubt on this at this stage but as I have seen this publicised so many times I ,would like a final"yeah" or" nay "to wrap up this contentious issue awhich should be answered by an authoritive Moslem source.
84. Welcome to the USA and NOT Singapore
Gabe ,   USA   (09.16.10)
Free speech is a right. I do not condone what this man was looking to do, but his right to do it is already established under the Constitution of the United States. If we arrested everyone based on "PRE-CRIME" or suspected ---> forecasted hate activity we would be no better than the gestapo.
