Unknown. The Florida guy says he has an appointment in NYC on Saturday. The NYC Imam says he doesn't.

Florida Pastor Terry Jones Cancels Plans to Burn Quran

It says that Jones is reconsidering his decision of calling off the event. I think maybe there is still a chance of it happening.

That'll be hard if he is in NY Saturday.

Well he might not even go to New York anymore because of what happened. Jones says he wants to talk with the Imam of New York tomorrow.

Florida pastor says he's 'rethinking" canceled Quran burning - CNN.com

I am just trying to figure out what negotiating power he thinks he has.

I really don't think he has anything besides burning the Quran. Maybe he's hoping that the Imam will consider this to be such an atrocious act thathee will move the mosque site. Other than that I think he's just manipulated the media, and he basically has nothing.

Honestly so what? It won't incite muslims to violence anymore than anything else does..and pretty much anything else allready does. Walking across the street with your girlfirend/boyfirend's hand in yours incites them to violence, haveing a female as a department head incites them to violence, haveing a statue of a female in New York harbor incites them to violence.

It's not really an arguement saying the action itself will endanger anyone anymore than they are allready in just because they are non muslim. The meer fact non muslims exist, incites them to violence. It's just the nature of the beast. It won't start a relgious war because technically they have been fighting a relgious war since Islam's creation under Mohamad, they won't stop until everything is muslim. Again, it's just the nature of the beast.

Well it's just that to me, it feels like burning the Quran would be like the spark that ignites the powder keg.

The keg was lit 1400 years ago and exploded by Mohamad.
