After days of protests over an anti-Islam film, American diplomatic missions in the Middle East and North Africa were braced for further violence after Friday prayers. The US put its overseas missions on high alert.
Germany has closed its embassies in a number of Muslim-majority countries in fear of attacks. "We are observing how the security situation develops with great attentiveness and we have increased security precautions at a number of foreign missions," a spokesman for the German Foreign Office told SPIEGEL ONLINE. Embassies in North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan are believed to be among those affected.

You’re exactly right.
Yeah it was pretty evident what his sexual orientation was
You know... Bush could have done a lot of what you have described in the first couple of weeks after 9-11 and had most of the world on his side. We missed a real opportunity, and instead entered into this stupid war with no chance of winning.... and only getting our guys and gals shot up.
Since the overwhelming majority of people in the American news media are Democrats, you can’t count on them for objective news reporting. You have to go to European sources.
The best possible outcome would be the present news media withering and dying because the public ignores it.
More than a few Europeans like to bitch about America or talk America down. However, many of them will admit that they are glad the U.S. is there and they normally look to us (at least NATO did) to carry the heavy water and do the right thing.
That sentiment is changing as the new guard replaces the old guard that still carries the memories of WWII and the mentality of the Cold War. It is interesting to see how many young Europeans look at what we are doing and express disbelief. If not America, who?
Media coverage about our own nation is much better in Europe. The progressive papers in Europe don’t carry water for Obama and it shows in their coverage. I suggest anyone (who has not) read European papers online for a week and compare.
first of all, it is not about an obscure anti-muslim film. funny how that trailer has been around for months and it didnt come to light until sept 11
Yep. This is just a charade to whip idiots predisposed to certain behaviors into a frenzy. It worked very well on the mobs there, the media mob here, and our own state department and administration.
To be honest this crap was started with killing a Saddam.
But it was 100% 0&Hillary fault for making a precedent out of it with Q-duffy.
Vermins has lost their fear to dictators - the only force able to make them to behave earlier.
Thanks TigerClaws.
———You have to scare the bad guys to keep them in check.-—
Actually, to scare them you must actually kill them, lots and lots of them, with an odd wife and child thrown in here and there as collateral damage
Right. Take a look at the IQ studies done in moslem countries. They are collectively too stupid to understand freedom or democracy. They are only smart enough to be dangerous. And can only be controlled with an iron fist.
Yep. These nations are huge ghettos. If you want to imagine an average ME country just imagine a Calofornia-sized Dertoit.
In fact Detroit could look (only look) like a nice place long ago being ruled like they used in ME.
Dictator could simply show-trial and execute gangsters as “enemies of the neighborhood”, he could convert some stadium to re-education camp amassing addicts there, he could have his kind of industrialization forcing food stamp class into abandoned factories to make some lo-tech cheap stuff.
After all of these done all he has is to get some paint and windows to renovate urban exterior and claim they are in paradise. And Flint right next to it as a small stinking piece of Zionist decadence in need to be liberated:)
That couldn’t be that much better but you could certainly safely visit a place and peope around couldn’t complain about lawless Detroiters.
ya know, i am not a nation builder and do not believe in it and some nations are not ready for a “democracy”, which i do not agree with that word whatsoever.
has to be a constitutional republic. democracy is an overused word by the left.
some of these idiots can only be controlled by a dictator. when they get out of line, you send some bombers over there like Reagan did to kadaffi, blow the hell out of them and dare them to do it again.
no sense sending troops over there to try to educate ignorant people to accept freedom. hell, we have a hard enough time trying to do that in the US.
i would have never sent a troop to die, in place of a bomb.
Blessings, bobo
