I Hope The Retaliation
for the Koran burning is aimed at the minister and participants and not the general public. This is like throwing gasoline on a forest fire. If a single cartoon caused such outrage what is this action going to cause?

4. I Know The Average Muslim
will behave in a civilized manner but unfortunately the fanatics will probably act like the Christian fanatic in Florida. That speaks of trouble on both sides. It appears we will end up dealing with uncivilized Christians and Muslims.

5. and the fanatics are getting their views aired by corporate media, thus making things much worse
Yes, we will end up dealing with 'uncivilized Christians and Muslims' thanks to corporate media.
