Quran Burning Cancelled

As a "compromise", the Quaran burning was called off and the mosque in New York will be moved.

"The anti-Muslim leader of a tiny Florida church backed off his threat to burn the Quran, defusing an international firestorm Thursday after he said he was promised that a planned Islamic center and mosque would be moved away from New York's ground zero. The imam planning the center, however, quickly denied such a deal."

       If Pastor Terry Jones had continued with his decision to burn the Quaran, no one would be able to predict the outcome of his action. The agreement to not burn the Quarn also came with a result of changing the location on the mosque. On Saturday, Jones and Imam Muhammad Musri, the president of the Islamic Society of Central Florida, will be meeting with the imam who is making the plans to build the mosque.
      As a response to Jones' announcement:
"We are not going to toy with our religion or any other. Nor are we going to barter. We are here to extend our hands to build peace and harmony." -Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf (Leader of the Islamic center project)
      Many things are at risk with the entire situation. If the Quaran burning does end up happening, our troops could be in danger and no one knows what the rest of the world would do in response.
