Now it is internationally covered, which is just pathetic.

Does he have the right to do it? Yes. But I think he might be better served in his understanding of Islam and indeed his own religion if he read one, instead of burning it. But that wouldn't make him famous, now would it?
I've seen several reports on t.v. regarding this, yet not one of anyone supporting him. Everyone from the Pope to the Holy Rollers is against him. In one interview with him, he was asked if anything would change his mind about it. He said if God sent him a message and told him not to do it, then he wouldn't, but he didn't expect to hear any such message. Now isn't that a surprise??? I think he'd better be looking over his shoulder, and fearing for his own safety, for quite some time to come, whether he does it or not!
