The point is this. He had been asked not to burn the Koran because he would put other people at risk if he did so.

This reminds me of the Wikileaks man. He is accused of putting secret services people at risk for releasing those documents. Now he is crucified in the media and faces trials and prosecution of all sorts. So far nobody has died because of Wikileaks.

But this pastor was specifically told that if he burned the Koran it would undermine all the efforts in the Middle East. He was personally requested not to do it by Robert Gates. He went ahead and did it knowing fully well what would happen.

Maybe we can call him a provocateur. But his provocation did have lethal consequences. That is what I am trying to get at. It is like instigating somebody to violence. Of course the insurgents who infiltrated the protest are to blame for the killings, but the pastor should at least accept that he is responsible for trigerring that violence when there was really no need to do so.
