Imagine if Qur’ans had been burned. Non-Muslim leaders worldwide would be lining up to thunder condemnations of the act. If it happened in Israel, it would be the cause of a new round of opprobrium directed at the Jewish state. But over this, no one will get as excited as they would in that case.
“Arab rioters burn Jewish holy books in Harasha,” Israel National News, July 22, 2022 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Over Shabbat, Arab rioters set fire to a building that serves as a recreation and leisure place for the youth of the Harasha settlement in Western Binyamin, and burned holy books.
Mordechai Zvi Landsberg, a volunteer firefighter from Harasha, said that upon his arrival at the scene he noticed a group of Arab rioters down the mountain protesting and shouting at soldiers who were standing nearby.
A few minutes later, additional firefighters arrived and extinguished the fire. According to Landsberg, the remains of a Molotov cocktail were found at the scene.
After Shabbat, youths from the settlement arrived at the site and were horrified to find many holy books burned….

My question is, why do I learn of this here and not on another website or TV news? You are quite correct Robert, had this been a Qur’an burning in Florida or Texas, the media hordes would descend, and U.S. Marshal’s sent to arrest the offender.

Yep, if this had been anyone…..even if a bunch of drunken mozlums …burning their unholy book of demonic instructions and filth, the world would denounce Israel and blame the Jews and all h e double hockey sticks would break out and last for days, weeks, and many threats would be hurled about who all had to die.
the arson in the barracks of mozlums have been set by mozlums, but they are never blamed and innocent people are threatened. someone burns the unholy book of filth, supposedly from the mass-murdering raper of children, lying son of satan the devil, and death threats from every corner until the next **error**…
Who will be condemned for this? Who will be threatened? Who will be punished? Likely no one will be punished.
Only if had been the unholy book of demon filth would someone be condemned and threatened and punished.

it would be nice for once to see the Israeli’s put this out as the disgusting attack upon religion that it was. And to demand of the agencies that forever scold Israel about any and all such actions to answer for this.

Why get upset with the world about a double standard when Israel itself is tolerant of Muslim anti semitism in Israel.
There should be no tolerance of Muslims burning Jewish books in the Jewish holy land of Israel. There should be a mandatory deportation of any Muslim committing antisemitic acts in the land of Israel.
OLD GUY says
It is a one sided WAR, muslims can murder priest, burn bibles and holy books along with destroying churches of other religions and thats OK. But if someone burns a Quran or buts bacon on the steps of a mosque it is a hate crime of the worse kind and covered on all media for days. Makes one wonder who owns and controls the media?
