Entrepreneur and activist discusses at his official blog the recent debate about the Quran burning by a Christian church in Florida

James Hooks, entrepreneur and activist, discusses unnecessary religious tolerance at his official blog, http://blog.jameshooks.com/

His blog, entitled "Quran Burning - More Unnecessary Religious Intolerance", attacks Islamophobia and general religious intolerance, and why it is self-defeating for religious groups to take such drastic measures to criticize entire groups of people.

"Muslims... died in the Twin Towers attack," James Hooks writes, "[and] since 9-11, most 'Islamic' terrorist attacks have targeted Muslims, such as the recent bombing of the shrine of a Muslim saint in Pakistan.

"Fighting terrorism is not just a matter of armed force and intelligence work; there is an ideological front. If this church in Gainesville proceeds with its plans, then it is likely that the pseudo-Muslims who try to stir up resentment and hatred will seize upon the videos."
