Stop playing your silly diversions song, the damn thing has nothing to do with Obama, except in how he now deals with it.

This entire disaster is because of hate mongering by idiots in our own country. Its a huge, and now bloody misunderstanding. For example, in Egypt, all films must have state approval to be released, so the average Egyptian would assume that such a film, (of which they only saw enraging clips that were even dubbed, their media is no better than ours) has US government approval, as they do not have the tradition of freedom of speech. Im sure its similar if not worse for Libyans

In my opinion, the fault of this incident lies at Terry Jones and Egyptian/middle east Media's feet for his and their out of context hate mongering using a stupid obscure hate mongering film made by an Israeli American real estate developer in California. Now its blown out of proportion, and good people are dead.


WRONG: the fault lies solely at the feet of a medevial "religion" that calls for violence & hatred. Islam as defined by these zealots is the problem. While I don't agree with Pastor Jones's theology, he is well withing his rights as an American to express his free speech. The hate mongers and zealots in islam that perpetrate this violence are the problem and the sooner we realize this and wipre them from the face of the earth the better. Until then we will have no peace.
