The threat of a major fault fed Korans to mark the ninth anniversary of the 11-S did not materialize but it was world news. Pastor Terry Jones, head of the tiny Church of Gainesville (Florida), fan, lighted only backed down after receiving a call from Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, which ordered him not to do it now that was endangering the lives of innocent people and American soldiers.
The television cameras turned off and hundreds of journalists returned to their homes. Nothing happened. But that same irrational hatred eventually staged on 20 March in the same church, known by the convoluted name of Dove World Outreach Center and less than fifty faithful during the Sunday sermon, and no one took notice.
Went completely unnoticed. None of the two local newspapers, or the "Gainesville Sun" or "The Florida Alligator," picked by the fact that Jones oversaw the burning of a Quran during a mock trial in which he was found "guilty" and subjected to stake as in the times of the Inquisition. The newspaper "USA Today" achieved through religious news service, briefly interviewed by telephone to the pastor, who told what happened.
The Agence France Presse was told by a cable dated March 21 in Florida. There was no global noise. That was it. Except that as a result of the Koran burnt, died on Saturday killed seven United Nations workers in the remote Mazar i Sharif, in the distant Afghanistan. Jones insists he did not break his word that he would not return to his incendiary ideas.
"We have not broken any commitment, that promise had to do with the International Day of the Burning of the Koran." This is another thing, says the pastor. "We Stand Up America, find that what happened is tragic and criminal action," reads the statement from the newspaper. "The unrest in Afghanistan is unacceptable for the U.S.
government" continues the text, to reach the merits of the advocated by Pastor Jones: "Islam is a religion of peace. It is time that we responsible for their actions these people. We demand that our Government take action and speak out against these acts. These people should be brought to justice.
" Jones lives under the theory that Islam, that "those people", is waiting for the opportunity to take control of American society to enforce its laws. Author of a book entitled "Islam is the devil," Jones believes that "it is time to stop tolerating the countries dominated by Muslims who spread hatred against Christianity." This was the only apology Saturday that preaches bigotry came from Jones, if anyone expected any.
The Koran was burned on March 20, burned for 10 minutes. The man who blew the fire was wrong with Pastor Wayne Sapp, under the watchful eye of Jones and just over 30 fans, although the act of redemption was open to the public. Three people were killed and dozens wounded on the third day of protests against the burning of a Quran in a U.S.
church, which cost more than a dozen lives since Friday. Between three and four thousand people took to the streets in the provinces of Nangarhar (east), Kapisa (Centro), Kandahar (south), Badakhshan (northeastern) and Parwan (North), the spokesman said Afghan Interior Ministry, Zemarai Bashary.
The most serious events, as happened on Saturday, took place in the city of Kandahar, where protesters set fire to a police station traffic, causing the explosion of a gas cylinder that left several injured. The PaísTerry Jones, pastor of a small Pentecostal church in Florida, calls over the Internet the International Day of Burning the Koran for 11 September.
Jones believes the Islamic holy book text that incites violence and radical behavior. The call for Jones gradually attracts the attention of Internet users and, in turn, the news media. The controversy on the initiative of the pastor travels parallel to the national debate taking place in the United States on the proposed construction of an Islamic center-endowed cultural facilities, sports and a prayer area, two blocks from Ground Zero in Manhattan.
The initiative for Jones produces a virtually unanimous rejection. Demonstrations against the call for Jones are held in various countries. These include Afghanistan, Pakistan, India and Indonesia. In some cases the concentrations are violent. The tension grows, and the U.S. political leadership puts great pressure on the pastor to resign at once.
On September 9, Jones announced his departure earlier. On day 10, the U.S. Congress opened a commission of inquiry into the radicalization of Muslims in the United States, generating fears of a return to the McCarthy witch hunts. On day 20, the pastors Terry Jones and Wayne Sapp held a "trial of the Koran" organized in the parish of Jones.
In late March, two Christians were killed and a church burned in attacks is justified as responses to the act of Sapp and Jones. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan United Nations (UNAMA, for its acronym in English) on Friday suffered its worst attack since it is in that country devastated by more than three decades of foreign intervention and internal wars, and lives in a situation of true failed state, almost without government, without services and a delay in virtually all respects.
The objective of UNAMA to promote peace and stability, help implement reconstruction programs, encourage the establishment of rule of law and rule of law and even encourage reconciliation among Afghans. It is a mission, like all UN, positive and worthy of applause. Did not come to destroy but to build, rebuild a shattered social fabric first by the Soviet empire (1979-1988), then the mujahedeen insurgency funded by the West against communist rule in Moscow and finally by the Taliban, which imposed an atrocious regime mainly affected women and girls.
Unlike armies and covert operations to arm guerrillas, UNAMA is a being of peace. Should have the support of the Afghan people. Works, in fact, for him, but the attack, which killed at least seven workers of the world governing body's mission, suggests that such work is not recognized or hatred of foreigners is so great that it exceeds appreciation that they can earn good deeds in Afghanistan.
Unlike the war in Iraq, Western military intervention in Afghanistan was considered "justified and correct." Always questioned Barack Obama in his campaign to win the U.S. presidency of the reasons for his predecessor George W. Bush to invade Iraq and defended at the same time, the presence of U.S.
armed forces on Afghan soil. Already, Obama has withdrawn troops from Iraq and sent to Afghanistan, under the principle of right action: to fight terrorism and help rebuild the country, a task which assist many other nations. Today we see that the intervention "justified and correct" has not been without its failures, injustices, massacres of civilians and even monstrous criminal actions of U.S.
troops against Afghan children. The magazine "Rolling Stone" precisely aware of these atrocities in a special report on the so-called "squad to kill," which reveals how two U.S. soldiers with a grenade killed an Afghan man of 15 years and then top it shot took photographs with the corpse, which mutilated, like a beast of prey.
Jeremy Morlock The soldier was sentenced last month to 24 years in prison for his crime. He avoided a life sentence by giving testimony against their immediate superiors, far from failing such actions seemed to encourage them. UNAMA The attack happened right in this context, although the reason has been put forward, as reported, was the challenge made by an American pastor who burned last March in Florida, a copy of the Koran.
The fanaticism of Terry Jones was answered by fans with an attack on Afghan blood and fire at the UNAMA office in Mazar-i-Sharif. Jones, not content with their irresponsible action now claims that "require accounts to Islam" by the attack on the UN. The last Afghan war began nearly 10 years after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
Bush blamed Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, of being the mastermind of those attacks and the Taliban to give asylum. The biggest terrorist is still at large and Afghanistan remains a disaster and will be more chaos, as noted by the expert Ahmed Rashid, if unchecked violence dynamics and atmosphere of anti-Islamic crusade that is rising in the region and beyond.
At least 50 people were killed and 110 wounded in a double suicide attack on a Sufi shrine in the center of Pakistan, a police source. Two suicide bombers entered the temple of Sakhi Sarwar, dedicated to the Sufi saint of the same name and located near the town of Multan in eastern Punjab province, and detonated the explosive vest carrying.
Thousands of devotees had come to the site to honor the saint within a traditional annual festival lasting three days, the terrorist attack took place. The Kazakh head of state, Nursultan Nazarbayev, has won early presidential elections held yesterday by an overwhelming majority of about 95%, according to exit polls surveys conducted by different organizations.
"The overwhelming majority, namely 95.1% of respondents said they gave their vote to the current head of state, Nazarbayev," said the director of the Institute of Democracy, Yulia Kuchinskaya. Meanwhile, the Association of Sociologists and Political Scientists of Kazakhstan (ASIP) indicated that Nazarbayev managed to collect 94.82 percent.
Secondly, according to the ASIP, place the Senator Gani Kasimov, leader of the Patriots, with 2.17% of the votes, followed by the Kazakh Communist leader, Zhambil Ajmetbékov, to 1.57 percent.
