9/11 Qur’an burning - a disgraceful plan for America

I agree with President Barack Obama who has condemned the plan of an American pastor to burn copies of the Qur’an on the ninth anniversary of September 11. I too think that such an act will not only offend the Muslim world and create outrage across the Islam world but also will act as a “recruitment bonanza for al-Qaeda”! 
I believe that this pastor is ignorant and insensitive. He calls Muslims radical but displays even more radical views and actions. 
Freedom of speech does not mean that you are allowed to insult anything and anyone you like. If someone wants to express his or her believes, one should first fully understand his or her own views. In the case of this pastor, he should at least read the Holy Qur’an!
