Can someone please help me? I’ve been watching the news non-stop since the mid-east blew up and I don’t remember if anyone address this ...
Do we know WHY the Cairo embassy sent out the apology statement in the first place? I mean, did they get a note saying protesters were headed their way and they’re mad about a video?
I haven’t seen an answer to this anywhere, can someone help direct me if there is please? thanks
I'm pretty sure the Cairo embassy didn't send out an apology until after the embassy was attacked. Early reports had Egyptian TV repeatedly airing clips of the Innocence of Muslims video trailer. Who was behind them airing that on 9/11 is the question of the day.
So far they seem pretty sure that Al Quaida organized this. It appears they used the film to stir up local protests and then sent in their fighters to turn it violent.
