Burning American Flag

Many oppose equating terrorism followed by few Muslims with Islam. Hence, in their view, burning Koran is not correct. fair enough.

When one American announced intention to burn Koran, many American flags were burnt in Pak and Afghanisthan (and may be other places). Are they not equating one american with whole of America? Why no one, particularly those who advocate the above doctrine, condemned it?
