(http://i.huffpost.com/gen/262862/thumbs/r-AFGHANISTAN-RIOT-large570.jpg) The Florida pastor who presided over the recent burning of a Quran said the United Nations must protect Afghans from deadly riots, even as he denied responsibility for inspiring them.

At least eight U.N. aid workers and four others were killed Friday (April 1) at a compound in the city of Mazar-e Sharif. Media reports indicate an imam at the city's central mosque encouraged worshippers to take action against the Quran burning.
