Anti-Islam film: Thousands protest around Muslim world
BBC ^ | 9/17/2012 | Nik Gowing

Posted on 09/17/2012 12:45:04 PM PDT by mojito

Fresh protests are taking place around the Muslim world over an amateur anti-Islam video produced in the US.

At least one protester was killed in violent protests in Pakistan and thousands attended an angry rally in the Philippines city of Marawi.

Weapons were fired and police cars torched in the Afghan capital, Kabul.

The leader of Lebanon's Hezbollah has said the US faces "very dangerous" repercussions if it allows the full video to be released.

In a rare public appearance, Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah told a rally in the capital Beirut that the world did not understand the "breadth of the humiliation" caused by the "worst attack ever on Islam".

More than a dozen people have died since last Tuesday in protests sparked by the appearance on Youtube of a trailer for the obscure, poorly made film, which is entitled Innocence of Muslims.

Where are the world wide protests from the 1.2 billion mudslimes who we have been told are peaceful?

Should they not be protesting the people who ACTUALLY give Is-Slime a bad name by their savage behavior? Come on you desert monkeys, PROVE your cult is a religion (is not) and prove it is peaceful by taking to the streets in all your monkey brained countries where you are in the majority and protest against the REAL savages who distort your beliefs.

Prove you can be civilized by living next to a Jew on one side and a Christian on the other without beheading either one. We seem to be able to do it but you infantile addled brain monkeys go off on the slightest offense.

You are not ready for prime time and given your tendency for inbreeding it is very likely you never will be ready and more than likely are developing into a branch of the human race which can never be brought into a civilized world.

I hope the truth has not offended you!

Frankly, if all westerners cleared the area for the time being, what would anyone care if they rampaged ‘til kingdom come.

Guess so. Not like Isandlhwana though. Omdurman was even better. Lock, load shoot and shoot and shoot etc.

Have any FReepers seen this "film"?

From what I have heard from others,they noted it sounds like the voices were dubbed in, and possibly over-dubbed. No surprise, as it was likely recorded in English and translated. But If you can dub it once, why not overdub it from "Osama" to "Mohammed"? SO what I'm wondering is: did an industrious al-Qaeda member changed it about to be "insulting", then sent it to the local YouTube to deliberately mislead others?

I believe that's most likely the case, but I also heard the crappy video has been in Youtube since July, so why would a community organizer wait until now? Does the whole middle east sit online and watch Youtube all day?

Here's the link to the “long” version of the trailer that is (surprisingly) still up at YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjoa3QazVy8

As film, as drama, it's laughably bad. And its exact provenance still remains a mystery. As far as I know, there is no complete “film,” only this trailer.

What I do know is that this “trailer” has been up on YouTube since July, but that it only came to the attention of Muslims after a radical Islamist TV station in Cairo broadcast and denounced it last week.

Bill Cunningham said this yesterday -- 'When I came out of church, I didn't start a mob to burn down buildings.'

I have to agree, what NORMAL RELIGION would tell you to do that??

the world did not understand the “breadth of the humiliation” caused by the “worst attack ever on Islam”.

Come on Hollywood, you can do better than this.
Are you really going to let a piss poor example
of film making cause the humiliation of the entire
muslim race?
Where was the wide screen, technicolor, dolby sound, HD
Blue Ray of death that is the cutting edge of western
civilization? Big Names, Big faces, Big boobs, where’s
the insanity of Mad Mo in all it’s hilarious pathos?
I can just see that axe crashing through the bathroom
door and that learing face, “Heeeeeere’s Mohammed!”
