When Islamic societies start to worry about how they massively, shamelessly discriminate other beliefs and cultures and how they supress the display or the historic monuments of expression of such other cultures and even destroy them - then I will start to worry about burning the Quran.
Freedom is all nice and well, but it ashould be given to somebody else only if he does not use that freedom to destroy freedom. Building that mosque is a provocation and the orginsation behind that coup is directly linked to openly hostile Islamists of the most radical spectrum, as explained in the article I linked. It is a mocking of the victims - and many Americans and Westerners are even lame enough in their heads not to see it or not wanting to see it.
That some nevertheless are so pissed by the fact that the ideology that has caused, motivated and justified the 9/11 attacks now even is shameless enough to raise it's own ugly grinning face over the graves of the victims and to stageact a satire of itself being oh so innocent and even a victim of misunderstandings, is so rhich and underhanded that people feeling the urge to to "burn it" in a way is just a natural human reaction.

Brind down Islam - before it has completely brought down freedom, education and enlightenment. The damage already is big, the dark seed in the minds of peope already has been sown, it's presence in world media and global attention makes it the number 1 top item in the list of headlines, it's influence already is such that it is given more privileges and special rights and special status and special attentions than any other cult, relgion, ideology. And still it says it's not enough! It will never be enough - not before all is it's own.

Burnijg books usually is not good. But there are somne books that are bad and evil and have cause dnothing but hate and intolerance and bloodshed throughout their history. Hitler's Mein Kampf, or the Quran are two such books. You should not cry if their poisenous ideas and content get lost: it would be a great acchievement for mankind. There simply never comes any good from these books, and there is no way you can relativise the evil of their content by saying that burning the one book opens door and gate for burning all books, that is nonsense caused by crucifying onself over absolutist demands. You do not portest when Chriszian churches get opressed in islamic countries, and Jewish communtiies are almost driven out, fleeing countries wehre they lived since centuries now.

The receiver of your good will in no ways deserves your good intention. Be careful you do not will the other that freedom that he needs to take away from you freedom. Free societies need to define where freedom ends, too: and that is when freedom gets abused for destroying freedom, like Islam does.
