The Taliban used a rocket launcher to blow up a Swedish flag in a show of rage over the Qur’an burning by Rasmus Paludan in Sweden. To think that one man in “the Scandinavian country infuriated the Islamic world” to such a great degree should prove to every Westerner what normative Islam is really about. It isn’t about peace, but its root is supremacy and its goal is conquest. Yet the UK, alone among Western countries, has only just begun to look at the ideology behind jihad terrorism.

“Taliban militants use a rocket launcher to blow up a Swedish flag after Scandinavian country infuriated the Islamic world by allowing Koran burning,” by James Callery, MailOnline, February 7, 2023:
A video that shows a group of men, purportedly Taliban militants in Kandahar, south Afghanistan, shooting at a Swedish flag and then blowing it up has been circulating on social media.
At the end of January, the Scandinavian country infuriated the Islamic world when far-right activist Rasmus Paludan burned a copy of the Koran outside the Turkish embassy in Stockholm after being granted permission by authorities.
The video shows a group in Afghanistan standing with a flag as one of them shoots into the distance with a rifle.
A line of men are then seen, with one of the members firing a rocket launcher, which causes the Swedish flag pinned to the side of a building to explode.
The group members then walk over, with one of them holding up the damaged flag and pointing a gun towards it.
They walk off carrying the flag and saluting with their rifles.
On January 27, thousands of Afghans held protests to express anger over the Koran burning in Sweden.
Kabul residents in different parts of the city took part in demonstrations, according to police spokesperson Khalid Zadran.
In the northern province of Badakshan, a spokesperson for the provincial government said thousands had gathered after Friday prayers to protest.
Earlier that week, the Taliban-run Afghan foreign ministry had called on the Swedish government to punish the individual and to prevent any similar incidents taking place.
Paludan, a convicted extremist, who holds both Danish and Swedish citizenship, repeated the protest at a mosque in Copenhagen, in front of a Turkish embassy.
He vowed to do so every day until Sweden is admitted to NATO….

A match would have done the job, at far less cost.

Precisely – a match and some lighter fluid!
Keith O says
These maggots, as Tim would say, are so proud of what they are doing that their faces were blurred out.
Now that is real faith and commitment to the cause. And so, so brave of them.

Islam’s answer is violence to criticism.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Someone – be it Paludan or anyone else – should burn the Taliban flag along w/ some more qurans – in Sweden. Maybe this time outside the Afghan embassy in Stockholm
somehistory says
that’s overkill….as is the furor, riots, uproar, and calls for death after the burning of the book of unholy filth.
mozlums do nothing in moderation.
OLD GUY says
In islam’s eyes the burning of a Quran is way worse than stoning a person to death for being an unfaithful wife or throwing a person off the roof of a tall building for being gay. You can also include such other acts from muslims such as burning of christian churches and killing the priest, adults and children members of the congregation. Oh I forgot those acts by muslims are approved of in the Quran. Nothing about non-muslims wanting not to destroy this book would make sense.
