Terry Jones Defies Administration, Plans to Burn Korans Anyway 08 Sep 2010 Terry Jones, the minister planning to set on fire hundreds of copies of the Koran on 9/11, says he will defy the wishes of the White House and top military brass and go ahead with his plan to build a bonfire of the Islamic holy book. "As you can imagine we have received very much pressure in the direction of cancelling the event," Jones told reporters today outside his Dove Outreach Center in Gainesville, Fla. "As of this time have no intention of cancelling... On Sept. 11, we shall continue with our planned event," he said.
