this is an interesting read: There may be no anti-Islamic movie at all - CSMonitor.com

How can you say that? Obama has taken firm, decisive action by deploying two Navy destroyers off the Libyan coast to go after any Al Qaeda submarines in the area.

That doesn't seem like an intelligent rational way to express how badly you want your "freedom".

You need to stop drinking the liberal cool-aid.
My point is they want us out. Not too difficult to understand.

Obama masterminded the Arab Spring movement? You're kidding, right?

Show me. I dare you...show me. Hell, show us all how and when Obama "masterminded" the Arab Spring movement. I dare you. Put up or shut up.

This movie is looking like an amateurish piece of junk, which diminishes my opinion of Muslims even more. If trash like this is all they need to riot, and kill people, what will set them off next, anti-Islamic graffiti on a railroad train car?

To use a pseudonym would lead one to think that there was motive and intent behind that video. Since those behind the video were exercising their right to freedom of speech, why go into hiding and not stand up and show themselves? Clearly the government will defend their right to free speech. Why doesn't Obama tell Egypt, Libya and Yemen that the film maker had every right to exercise his right to freedom of speech instead of apologizing?

You need to read more world news. Did Obama not sent troops and aircraft into Libya when the rebels could not advance?

Did Obama not support the regime change in Egypt and send millions to the Muslim Brotherhood for support?

Is Obama not meeting with the Egypt MB leader next week ... after he refused to meet the Israel PM?

Our troops have been helping in all of the Arab Spring operations including the current effort in Syria.

First posted in July with little attention. It was then updated to display Arabic subtitles.

Looks like they breached an outer perimeter and set fire to a building before being repelled.
I'm sure Obama will send an apology shortly.

This so called Israeli film-maker does not even exist ... but are we surprised?


Is "Sam Bacile" a Figment of Orange County Imagination?
