Peaceful Afghans Protest Koran Burning By Burning American Flags, Chanting 'Death to America'

This was all met approvingly by the U.S Embassy in Kabul. Obviously these freaks don't understand irony.

Scores of people have gathered in Afghanistan's capital Kabul on Monday to denounce a U.S. church's plan to burn the Islamic holy book the Quran.

Members of the crowd gathered chanted "Long live Islam" and "Death to America" in response to fiery speeches from members of parliament, provincial council deputies, and Islamic clerics denouncing the United States and demanding the withdrawal of foreign troops from the country.

The Gainesville, Florida-based Dove World Outreach Center announced plans to burn copies of the Islamic holy text on church grounds to mark the ninth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

The embassy made sure not to offend anyone and criticized only the dude in Florida.

The U.S. Embassy in Kabul said the "United States government in no way condones such acts of disrespect against the religion of Islam, and is deeply concerned about deliberate attempts to offend members of religious or ethnic groups."

"Americans from all religious and ethnic backgrounds reject this offensive initiative by this small group in Florida, a great number of American voices are protesting the hurtful statements made by this organization," it said in a statement.

Acts of disrespect to the Americans are apparently alright by them.

Nobody would pay any attention to the Florida church but the media seems obsessed with promoting the guy's plans.
