White House disavows Cairo apology
Politico ^ | Sept. 11, 2012 | BYRON TAU

The White House is disavowing a statement from its 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.

The U.S. embassy in Cairo put out a statement early Tuesday that apologized for an anti-Muslim film being circulated by an Israeli-American real estate developer.

"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," the embassy said in a statement published online.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the film depicts the Muslim prophet Muhammed as a "womanizer, pedophile and fraud" — a depiction bound to offend many Muslims.

To the crossed “t” and dotted “i”, these Marxist yocals parroted the Obama scripture.

Probably some fool Muslim donor to Obama runs that embassy.

I’d like to know actually who was given that assignment. Must have been a radical to want that assignment.

Advice to US Govt re Cairo:
STFU and get everybody out. Quit arguing over twittering for pete’s sake. You have unchained demons from hell and they are going to rampage. All Americans should leave now. Get out of the hemisphere if possible. All american assets in the Middle East are targets.

“Probably some fool Muslim donor to Obama runs that embassy.”

A little tidbit Freepers may be unaware of:

“Barry” (that was the name he used all his life) had two roommates in his college days, Muhammad Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, both from Pakistan. During Obama’s prez campaign, they were in charge of all those “small” Internet campaign contributions for Obama. Where did that money come from? The poor and middle class in this country? Or could it be from the Middle East?

It is clear to me that the Embassy’s and Hillary’s statements are U.S. policy on the matter. WH statements are electoral posturing.
