An Islamic group has threatened "jihad" if the "non-denominational" (Protestant) group in the U.S. goes forward with their planned "Burn a Qur'an" day on 9/11. Muslims recently "appealed to the Pope" and other world leaders hoping they would lend their efforts to try to prevent the event, and various Catholic leaders have also voiced criticism of the event. U.S. General David Petraeus warned that images of the burning would "undoubtedly" be used "to inflame public opinion and incite violence" and may possibly put U.S. soldiers and civilians "in jeopardy" [Hmm... Must have missed the standard 'religion of peace' reference...]
