U.S. Embassy Condemns Religious Incitement

September 11, 2012

The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims – as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions. Today, the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, Americans are honoring our patriots and those who serve our nation as the fitting response to the enemies of democracy. Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others

Just emailed the White House website with an “Are you kidding me” kind of message about their limp wristed apology to our attackers.

It is one thing to disassociate the country from the remarks of an individual citizen, but to call it an "abuse" of universal free speech is really bizarre and doesn't comport with our laws and the Constitution. Hell, Bill Maher made a film making fun of religion--just Christians and Jews--so I guess that deserves no comdemnation.

We either have free speech or we don't. The Embassy should have defended the right of free speech period. It is not a universal right, certainly not in Egypt.

Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light Delete, can’t see it, too bad, so sad
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming? Nope. Same prob
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? same/same
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Ditto
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave? Delete last two lines

“That should do it. Forward a copy of these revisions to all our embassies in the middle east, Africa and Eurabia and advise them to comport themselves accordingly.” Barack H. Obama Rex

Most importantly — we had a more homogeneous population a.k.a. the Greatest Generation.

That is over and will never be repeated.

Whoever becomes POTUS from now on will have to talk in a language so as to please every ethnic group or be accused of discrimination.

It’s a joke all right, and the joke’s name is Barack Hussein Obama.

Can I have a health plan that doesn't pay for birth control or abortion then?

“....it gives them confidence that they are winning.”

.
Hell, they have known that since 9/11/2001 when hi-fiving muslim students were dancing on American university campusses and gotten away with it and then to hear that the POTUS make that inane declaration that islam is a ROP.

Then seven years later the American people put one in the WH.

I’ll “respect” Islam when they allow Christian churches in Saudi Arabia.

sad thing is this was likely organized with Bill Ayers types & MBrotherhood well in advance. Along with orders to stand down and let it all occur.

At a later stage already planned we’ll be helping round up hateful Copts and Christians for a little reeducation or permanent vacation.

It’ll be good for the economy and jobs! Got a problem racist hater?!

Mob sets fire to US consulate in Benghazi: witness

An armed mob has attacked the US consulate in the Libyan city of Benghazi and set fire to the building, witnesses reported, in what they said was a protest at a film they said offended Islam.

A little earlier, Libya’s deputy interior minister Wanis al-Shari, told AFP the crowd had attacked the building and that information was confirmed by the US embassy in the capital Tripoli.

The state department is riddled with people suffering from Stockholm syndrome. All their employees other than maintenance staff should be pink slipped.

The Democrats view Islam with great esteem yet they deny GOD three times. Are they being hypocritical or is alla a nickname for Satan?
