The Palestinian campaign against Europe in the "Cartoon Affair" is escalating. On Thursday, scores of armed Palestinians closed down EU headquarters in Gaza. Anti-European feeling among the Palestinian public rose as rumors spread throughout the territories warning of an intention to burn the Koran at a demonstration in Denmark this Saturday. Palestinian terror organizations warned that if the Koran was burned, they would attack Europeans in the territories, destroy their consulates and offices, and murder their diplomatic staff. Support for the anti-European campaign is also coming from official Palestinian authorities. The Ministry for Religious Affairs, whose leaders identify with Hamas, has instructed all imams to discuss the attacks on Muhammad in their Friday sermons in the mosques. Mass demonstrations against Europe are expected Friday after mosque prayers.
