International outrage is growing over an Islamophobic Florida church’s plan to burn the Quran on September 11th. The Dove World Outreach Center has vowed to burn the Islamic bible to mark the ninth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. The Gainesville church made headlines last year after handing out T-shirts that said, “Islam is of the Devil.” On Monday, hundreds of Afghans rallied in Kabul to denounce the church’s plans. The protest came two days after thousands of Indonesians held protests in Jakarta and five other cities. The top US and NATO commander in Afghanistan, General David Petraeus, has warned the burning could endanger US troops.
