And our president apologizes to the people that did the attacking….do what now?

Look I’m not a huge rah rah guy for either political party but isn’t an attack on US embassies in other countries and killing those Americans holding those posts just like an act of war?

more than an act of war, its an attack on US soil. embasies and consulates are essentially the same as a military base on foreign soil.

They have now attacked a German embassy. Things are ugly over there right now. That is absolutely an act of war. The embassy is US soil, and they killed a highly ranking member of our government.

It’d be fine with me if the whole middle east became a crater.  They are crazy crazy people over there.  One stupid guy here in the US makes a movie they don’t like and they turn to violence against the whole country.  Its their nature and it makes zero sense, but they don’t care.

I wish those people had the education to realize that they fulfill the stereotype that they are protesting when they do this.

The Egyptian government should be held accountable. I don’t think the fledgling Libyan government has much control.

Their problem is they don’t understand our government, and the fact that movies are not approved or sanctioned by the government here like they are there.
