KORAN BURNING PLANS CANCELLED.

[elleng]

Just heard at NPR.

[lumberjack_jeff]

1. His mission was accomplished.

the next offering plate will be filled to the brim with bigot-bills.

[Canuckistanian]

2. I heard that Jones "is going to meet with Imams in NYC"

WTF?

[Jack Rabbit]

3. Maybe there is a God

!!

[Orrex]

4. Did God change his mind?

Such a fickle little deity!

[napi21]

5. Chris Mathews just mentioned it too. nt

[malaise]

6. I'm betting that the little notice from Florida that he would be

billed for all the security required was the icing on the cake.

[seabeyond]

7. fuckin asshole. nt

[Inuca]

8. BREAKING NEWS: Rev. Terry Jones says Quran burning won't occur if NYC Muslim center is moved

MSNBC site

[Joanne98]

9. NATCH!

[jobycom]

11. Okay, so who exactly was saying that calling him a terrorist wasn't appropriate?

:shrug:

[Turborama]

12. That's not breaking news

He said that to Anderson Cooper at the beginning of the week.

[Inuca]

21. I just copied & pasted

the MSNBC top of the page banner.

[Turborama]

In that case, maybe MSNBC have just heard of this stupid demand of his then.

[madmax]

10. No kidding?

It's a good thing, hope it's true.

What if he does meet with the Imams and something akin to a peace accord comes about. :crazy:

Man, am I some kind of cockeyed optimist or just plain crazy.

[Gin]

16. this loon has gotten way too much attention....now he is tied to

the mosque in NY....all I can see is he will get lots of funds from other loons and keep this crap going

[RaleighNCDUer]

25. You're an optimist -

Jones is fucking crazy.

[madmax]

28. Thanks -

I think I'm a little of both. I also got a chance to correct a spelling error ;)

[DesertFlower]

13. he just said the Imam in new york

i going to move the location of the mosque.

[spanone]

23. i seriously doubt that. seriously.

[madmax]

29. Everyone else is reporting 'no deal'

Tweety said, Pastor Jones is going to NYC to preside over nothing. lol

[DesertFlower]

33. well besides being a nut it looks like

he's a liar. god punishes liars.

[Cha]

14. PRESSURE!

:bounce: Thanks ellen!

[WolverineDG]

15. He blackmailed the NY group to move the "mosque"

opportunistic asshole

dg

[azmouse]

17. Thank God.

[AngryAmish]

18. Aren't we a bunch of assholes

[Myrina]

19. This crazy motherfucker needs to be charged with domestic terrorism ...

... inciting fear, putting (military and civilian) people's lives at risk, and 'blackmail'.

[The Northerner]

20. How bittersweet

The Quran burning ceased only when an imam conceded to move the NY mosque elsewhere?

Ugh, I still feel quite disappointed inside.

[Chulanowa]

22. Now the bigots know it works.

Expect more of the same.

[Inuca]

24. I feel dirty n/t

[RaleighNCDUer]

26. How about if they moved the community center (not a mosque) from 2 blocks away

to right across the street.

[Swamp Rat]

31. I all for that!

Fuck those inbred redneck christo-fascists!!

[Jack Rabbit]

27. BBC (Thursday): US pastor Terry Jones cancels Koran burning

From the BBC Online
Dated 2:06 pm PDT Thursday, 9 September

US pastor Terry Jones cancels Koran burning
The pastor of a small US church who wanted to burn copies of the Koran has cancelled his protest.

Terry Jones said he was calling off the Florida event after the group behind a planned mosque close to Ground Zero in New York agreed to relocate it.

Mr Jones had said the burning would be a stand against terrorism, but his plan was internationally condemned.

President Barack Obama had warned Mr Jones the event would be "a recruitment bonanza" for al-Qaeda.

Link will automatically update.

30. Shakespeare couldn't write this shit !

[mjane]

32. great

the goal was accomplished (getting him to change his mind) w/o his rights being violated.

[Boojatta]

34. How long before the government of North Korea announces its own Koran burning event?

[Fuzz]

35. Just checked fr (so you won't have to) and many are already saying the Imam lied

One even said this:

This is the best outcome we could have hoped for...Pastor Jones should go on every show and say that Imam Rauf promised to move the mosque, whether Rauf did or did not. Then they will HAVE to move the mosque, and if they don’t even the media will slam him for bad faith. BRILLIANT!
