Event
A Muslim activist who had been granted permission to burn the Jewish Torah and Christian Bible at the Embassy of Israel in Stockholm on July 15 has canceled the action. The activist indicated that it was a stunt. The event follows a controversial burning of the Muslim Quran in late June outside the Stockholm Mosque, which sparked counterprotests in Sweden and abroad, including Iraq and Pakistan.
