One person was killed and 14 wounded in clashes with security forces on Friday after Islamist protesters set fire to a U.S. fast food restaurant. Nasrallah, who heads the largest armed force in Lebanon, has the ability to muster huge numbers of Shi'ite...

    After the violent clashes in the Middle East last week where several Americans– including the U.S. Ambassador to Libya– were killed, Muslims in Australia have begun to riot as well. Allegedly protesting an anti-Muslim film, the protesters took to the streets in Sydney with signs that read, “behead all those who insult the prophet” and “down, down USA.” The Australian writes: Capsicum spray was fired, leaving faces red and inflamed, while one man was seen being dragged along the ground with blood dripping down his face. Superintendent Mark Walton later said he believed some people went to the protest “armed”,...

    The Obama administration was caught by surprise by the ferocity of the Sept. 11 attack against the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed the ambassador and three other Americans. Now it is bracing for another potential eruption of violent demonstrations in parts of the Muslim world after Friday's weekly prayers — traditionally a time of protest in the Middle East and North Africa...

    Hopes that deaths of four US diplomats won't be the last The United States is positioning military forces so that it can respond to unrest in as many as 17 or 18 places in the Islamic world, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta announced late Friday. "We have to be prepared in the event that these demonstrations get out of control,” he said. Those words dashed hopes in Washington that the anti-US Islamist rampage by now sweeping 21 countries over a video deriding Islam had passed their peak. In fact, by their sixth day Saturday, Sept. 15,the street protests against American embassies...

    I’ve been reminding you since news first broke of the jihadi attacks on our embassies and consulates that the Religion of Perpetual Outrage will find aaaaaany excuse for a riot. And they’ll manufacture anaaay excuse to recycle their centuries-old call to behead the infidels who dare to breathe, speak, draw, write, or think the wrong things about Islam and Mohammed. In 2007, my column titled “Behead All Those Who Insult Islam” alluded to their favorite bloodthirsty mantra. And I’ve pointed you many times to the infamous London Islamo-goons calling for the beheading and slaying of cursed insulters of Islam during...
