Egypt...WTF???

Egyptians angry at film scale U.S. embassy walls | Reuters
What movie are they talking about??

Here's the US Emabassy's response...again, WTF??

U.S. Embassy 'Condemns the Continuing Efforts by Misguided Individuals to Hurt the Religious Feelings of Muslims' | The Weekly Standard



Since the US Embassy is considered US soil, is this not considered an attack on US soil??

Turn the entire Middle East into a sheet of glass, then we can go cut holes where the oil is later.

I make my comments as a vet.

Embassy ground is the ground of the nation in the embassy. Remember Iran 1979 ?

ANY invasion of embassy grounds is an invasion of the home nation and should be responded to as such.

Just a question also, why is it moslems worldwide can get away with this but no one else can?? And yes before anyone asks I am a full blooded kafir.

The money should stop, now.

Empty the embassy and burn it when we leave.

Thanks for the correction...

As for the muslims being allowed to get away with it...my guess is everyone is afraid of hurting their feelings.

Therefore, nobody wants to hurt their feelings...it's just that simple.

Alternate scenario: Imagine the embassy is the Egyptian embassy in Washington D.C. and the same event occurs. Ok for Egypt to send in the forces?

Because, here in this country Muslims have their left wing apologists, who make excuses for them every time something like this happens.

Granted they never hit a million barrels a day, and they are on a rapid pace to consume more than they produce.... but we are typically ignorant people, and we assume that because they are middle east, they must have oil. And even if they don't, they might be friends with the people who do have the oil....
