  • I agree with you, context for the act is important as is the nature of who is doing the act. In this specific context an Iraqi man burning his holy book as a sign of protest against a corrupt theocracy is perfectly acceptable. However if a white christen who is not from that region were to burn another religion’s sacred text for example, then this could easily be considered a hate crime as they have no ties to that faith and would, rightly so be seen as an act of hate.

    Sorry if I rambled a bit.
