Petraeus said he was concerned by the political repercussions of the church's plan.

"Even the rumor that it might take place has sparked demonstrations such as the one that took place in Kabul yesterday," he said. "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."

He said extremists would use images of burning Qurans to inflame public opinion and incite violence.

"And this would, again, put our troopers and civilians in jeopardy and undermine our efforts to accomplish the critical mission here in Afghanistan," he said.


Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

Amazing.

-----------------------

Jones emerged from his church in Gainesville, Fla., to announce the deal which he said came after days of prayer and said he viewed the tentative arrangement as "a sign from God."

The fiery pastor said that Imam Abdel Rauf, the leader behind the Ground Zero mosque, will meet with him in New York on Saturday.

"He has agreed to move it," Jones said referring to the Ground Zero mosque.

"Americans don't want the mosque there and of course Muslims don't want us to burn Korans," said Jones.

"We have agreed to cancel our event on Saturday," he said.

Jones will fly to New York on Saturday, he said, to meet with Rauf.
 
--------------------------------------
 
Could Pastor Jones have planned it this way?  Naaaaaaaaaaaah.
 
Too weird.

Of course.  Sheesh.

Westboro Baptist Church, the fringe anti-gay Kansas church that pickets funerals of American soldiers, has said it would hold its own Quran-burning if Jones canceled his.

"WBC burned the Koran once – and if you sissy brats of Doomed america bully Terry Jones and the Dove World Outreach Center until they change their plans to burn that blasphemous tripe called the Koran, then WBC will burn it (again), to clearly show you some things," the church announced in a news release this week.

I'm with you, Tom.  Lord, just go ahead and come already!

You realize now this guy was just looking for a way to get out of what he started... no actual "deal" was made. Now "christians" also get to look like wimps that can't carry through with their plans.


The world's perfect, wouldn't change a thing.

Exactly. It will be used against Christians either way it goes.
