President Barack Obama warned on Thursday that a Florida pastor's plan to burn copies of the Koran is being used as an al-Qaeda recruitment tool and he urged the minister to reconsider the decision.
"This is a recruitment bonanza for al-Qaeda," Obama said in an interview with ABC's Good Morning America programme. "You could have serious violence in places like Pakistan or Afghanistan. This could increase the recruitment of individuals who would be willing to blow themselves up in American cities or European cities."
