AFGHANISTAN-US-ATTACKS-RELIGION-ISLAM-KARZAI

Afghan President Hamid Karzai delivers a speech during a press conference following Eid prayers at the Presidential Palace in Kabul on September 10, 2010. "We have heard that in the US, a pastor has decided to insult Korans. Now although we have heard that they are not doing this we tell them they should not even think of it," Karzai said. Florida pastor Terry Jones on September 9 put on hold plans to burn hundreds of Korans and said he would cancel the event if a controversial mosque project near Ground Zero in New York was relocated. Karzai was speaking at the presidential palace at a traditional post-prayers gathering of government ministers and officials to mark the first day of the Eid holiday that follows the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan.
