10. It wasn't just what he did
The mob that attacked and murdered those people were also stirred up because of Afghan civilian casualties caused by the "coalition" forces military operations and the US Army self appointed "kill team", who murdered several Afghans to include a 12 year old boy and then took pictures and souvenirs!

The Koran burning might have been the final straw, and the instigators used it to their advantage.

Sort of the same way that the Republicans in Congress used Obama's being "different" to take control of the House...they got the mob riled up.
