Not that there was ever much doubt. Three days after the Benghazi attack, the White House admitted it had pressured Google and YouTube to yank “Innocence of Muslims” as some sort of terms-of-use violation. Google refused. A week after that, having failed to twist a major corporation’s arm into censoring a politically unhelpful bit of free speech on its behalf, the State Department started running ads in Pakistan denouncing the movie, in hopes that jihadi savages would be appeased by the show of national contrition and not target any more embassies. Also around this time, YouTube did agree to censor “Innocence of Muslims” by blocking it in Egypt and Libya, the two nations that saw the most violent attacks on U.S. diplomats on September 11, 2012. Hillary Clinton had to have known about and signed off on all this, we naturally assumed. And now here’s evidence that she did: Although the message below is vague, I assume it’s referring to the ban that Google imposed on the video in Africa.
Leaning on corporate cronies to suppress Americans’ speech for political ends would be a disqualifying offense for a candidate in a sane world.

Fun fact: On the very day that e-mail was sent, the man who made “Innocence of Muslims” was arrested by the feds on a “parole violation.” Hillary’s leisure reading in the weeks before that was interesting too:

Then again, not all of what she was reading had to do with the Mohammed movie:

Exit question: Hillary was paying enough attention to Libya to know that her ambassador’s name was Chris Stevens, right? Right?
Update: Here’s a sneak preview of how the wider media’s going to relate to Hillary once First! Woman! President! fee-vah really gets going next year. If the text is too small in the tweets below, just click the images and it’ll enlarge. Quote: “HILL, can I ride on your lap to the White House?”

I have no idea what they’re talking about.
Just an old fart like me’s opinion, but I kinda think that’s the point.
Wait just a minute....a bit off topic but not. Does anyone here remember the embassy that sent out a apology right before the attack in Benghazi?
I think the timeline was around the time one of the 4 who died in Benghazi sent a twitter saying he was dead they have cameras?
For every ‘answer’ there seem to a dozen new questions.
State Dept tweet?

It was all part of the cover-up scam HILLINSKY orchestrated for political cover. The Pickering dog and pony show and putting the guy who made the video in jail, were as well. No doubt the most corrupt anti american administration ever.
Does anyone remember over a year ago that a guy with a website was following the making of that video, and how its name changed 3 times, and how it was traced to the State Dept? What happened to that guy?
Yes, there was a reported statement issued by an unnamed source at the US embassy shortly after the assault began in Egypt. It was a convoluted thing apologizing to anyone who might have had their religious sensibilities butt-hurt, and denying any involvement by the US government in promulgating whatever it was that might have hurt their butts. I remember because it was from far out in left field and scored highly on the WTF meter. This was hours before the Benghazi attack. After that, I never heard mention of it again.
I remember more than that. The Cairo embassy was tweeting apologies on the morning of 9-11-2012 at least six if not eight hours before the Benghazi attack. Hillary issued her own apology about 10:00 PM DC time, six hours after the attack had begun and about an hour before Ty Woods and Glen Doherty were killed.
---------------------------------------------------------
Talking heads are now pointing at Blumenthal as the source of the "video caused it" lie because of his email to Hillary on 9-12-12 about it. But that doesn't explain away the tweets from the Cairo embassy apologizing to muslims many hours before the attack in Benghazi on 9-11-12. The final tweet being made by Hillary herself.
Hillary Clinton is THE original source of the 'video did it' excuse for Benghazi, Cairo and all the rest of the embassy riots around the world. Hillary did it!
US Embassy in Cairo quietly deletes its ‘we stand by our condemnation’ tweet; Update: More deleted tweets!
Here is a 'senior administration official' trying to distance 0bamugabe from Hillary's f-up and at the same time admitting by inference that she was the source of the 'video did it' meme.
Senior administration official: The Cairo embassy’s statement does not reflect the view of the U.S. government; Update: Romney calls embassy statement “disgraceful”posted at 10:34 pm on September 11, 2012 by Allahpundit
The White House is disavowing a statement from their own Cairo embassy that apologized for anti-Muslim activity in the United States.
“The statement by Embassy Cairo was not cleared by Washington and does not reflect the views of the United States government,” a senior administration official told POLITICO…
“Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear: There is never any justification for violent acts of this kind,” Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in a Tuesday statement.
WH: Obama Called Hillary at 10PM on Night of Benghazi Attack–About Same Time Clinton | CNS NewsThat was more than six hours after the attacks started, more than an hour before Tryone Woods and Glen Doherty were killed–and about the time that Clinton first released a statement linking the attacks to “inflammatory material posted on the Internet,” a reference to an anti-Muslim video on YouTube.

Proof Positive - In My Opinion (who created Innocence of Muslims)(Obama)
The Youtube poster Montagraph is the one who posted videos about the source of the Innocence of Muslims video. He has since pulled them and doesn't discuss it anymore.
How about having an innocent man arrested and thrown into prison? I want to see the emails directing that.
Thank you so much for all that info. That is how I remembered most of it. Thanks for the links.....:0)
Bkmrk.
Why is this news today? Was it ever a secret?
My pleasure!
That’s the one - thank you. Pulled them & won’t discuss? I suppose I expected that.
Montagraph is a little out there but the analysis he had of the meta data trail was clear. The videos had been posted by some shady company with multiple Youtube accounts and had unmistakable markers that lead to a company that did internet security work for the DoD and DHS.
