Why is it when Muslims are burning western countries flags' there is not a peep from the western world but when someone in the Western world threatens to burn a copy of the Koran (which like it or not is just a book) all hell breaks loose from the Muslim world.

The burning of any other religion's holy book probably wouldn’t have even got into the mainstream news. So why does the burning of the Koran by a group of nobodies get into almost every news outlet in the world and warrant a quote from the the US Attorney General, who said that the idea is "idiotic and dangerous"? Why should such a silly stunt be 'dangerous'?...

well he has decided to put the burning on hold now, and a large part if me suspects that this is down to his own government advising of the error of his ways than any "foreign bully".

and burning a book isn't 'criticism'.

The burning of books is a mediaeval symbolism, latterly revived in Germany by the Nazis. Don't forget that when the first translations of the Bible in English appeared they were ceremoniously burnt by the Roman Catholic church.

it was the location of the mosque at ground zero he was disapproving of wasn't it ?

burning the book would be an affront.

I cannot source this quote; I think it might have been Queen Elizabeth I, although I am more than happy to be proved wrong, who said, " I would rather burn books than burn men".
