Obama says this is going to be an incentive for mass Al-Qaeda "recruitment bonanza"

Interestingly, he has the most mild opinion of anyone the article quotes:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-11243711

Interpol: "If the proposed Koran burning by a pastor in the US goes ahead as planned, there is a strong likelihood that violent attacks on innocent people would follow,"

President of Pakistan: "Anyone who even thought of such a despicable act must be suffering from a diseased mind and a sickly soul...It will inflame sentiments among Muslims throughout the world and cause irreparable damage to interfaith harmony and also to world peace,"

British Government: "We would strongly oppose any attempt to offend any member of any religious or ethnic group. We are committed to religious tolerance,"

Hillary Clinton: "disgraceful"

General Petraeus: Endangers the lives of soldiers.

Apparently, the Vatican and NATO also disapprove, but no quotations were given.

Obama did well as usual. I like his statements in that interview.
