MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The decision follows a recent string of public desecrations of the Quran by a handful of anti-Islam activists, sparking angry demonstrations across Muslim countries.
Sweden has raised its terror threat to four out of five after a series of public Quran burnings enraged Muslim communities around the world.
Acting on advice from law enforcement and security service leaders, the Prime Minister, Ulf Kristersson made the announcement on Thursday.
"I understand that many Swedes are right now feeling worried about the meaning of the new and raised threat level," said Kristersson.
Sweden and neighbouring Denmark have recently seen a spate of public desecrations of the Koran, including burnings, which have sparked widespread outrage and condemnation in Muslim countries.
According to the Swedish Prime Minister, Hezbollah in Lebanon, al-Shabaab in Somalia and al-Qaida are among the groups that have called on their sympathisers around the world to avenge the Quran burnings.

good bot
Misreading the headline, I was trying to figure out why a rating system would be based on burning qurans
Its a tiered system from 1 to 5 qurans and then it continues with Mohamed caricatures.
They can hit 5/5 if they burn both books
i dont think that they will let them burn ikea catalogues at the same time.
that would escalate into civil war.
"Burning Quran is terrorism"
The irony is palpable.
