U.S. intelligence officials are still trying to piece together the tragic events of the past few days that led to the unrest in Egypt and Libya and at least four murders. But behind the scenes is Gainesville, Fla., Dove World Outreach Center pastor Terry Jones and a man federal authorities have now identified as a Southern California Coptic Christian by the name of Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, 55, who adopted the persona of Sam Bacile, the man who produced the amateur film titled "Innocence of Muslims" that Muslim extremists say sparked Tuesday's violence that killed Stevens and three others.
Nakoula is currently on probation after being convicted of financial crimes and was the center figure behind the movie that was originally titled "Desert Warrior," an adventure film that supposedly took place over 2,000 years ago. The actors and crew who made the film claim they had no idea it was intended to mock Islam or Muhammad and issued a joint statement after the violence in Libya.>-snip->
From what has been learned about Nakoula, he was convicted in 2009 of fraud after opening a string of bank accounts under different names and transferred bogus checks between them, cashing the checks before they bounced.
But this was not his first encounter with law enforcement. In the late 1990s, he was convicted of manufacturing methamphetamine and sentenced to one year in jail and three years' probation. He was later jailed for another year after violating the term of his probation in 2002.
Before being identified, the man calling himself Sam Bacile told The Associated Press that he was Jewish and Israeli, although Israeli officials had no knowledge or records of anyone by that name.

Jones told reporters on Tuesday that he had no role in creating the movie but planned to show it at his Gainesville, Fla., church and possibly promote it to a larger audience.
"When we do our activities, when we raise our awareness of the radical element of Islam, we are posing those people absolutely no danger," Jones told an NBC News affiliate. "We are, perhaps, insulting some people, but just because you are insulted, it gives you no right to break into someone's house, go into his yard, kill him and destroy his property. So we should by no means excuse their activities."

Still some unconnected dots. How and why did our government connect Terry Jones with this movie within the very first press reports of the raid?
Terry’s a simple scapegoat.
The imam don’t need a real scandal to gin up riots and jihadist attack.
Terry didn’t burn that bible 2 years ago. Later he did without incident if I recall.
There have been jihadist attacks over phony photos of rape and torture and even a mistranslation of some liberal biddy’s essay about the West “raping” the environment and Turkish culture.
So if Terry were to apologize, would the jihadists even get the word that it happened?
You are dealing with misinformation, folks. In the Middle East and in the West.
Almost have to wonder from the rumors circulating about the film if the whole thing was a CIA psy op.
Terry Jones had the same role in the recent middle east attacks that Oral Roberts had in the Iranian Hostage Crisis.
Nakoula Basseley Nakoula. Maybe he’s on George Soros’ payroll as an instrument to create chaos during an election cycle. Or do I have too much tin foil on my head?
The MSM and the Obama Admin are trying to tie Jones into this fiasco when he is totally peripheral to the whole debacle. He did not make the film, and if and when there even is a film, supposedly will upload it to his church’s website to watch. Big whip. His connection to this film is at best tenuous, at worst, barely exists. Yet Jones’ name is thrown out there as red meat by the Christian hating Muslim loving obama minions and MSM of the same ilk.
But how was this connected to Jones so quickly?
Same way the CO shooter was connected to the Tea Party so quickly, I suppose.
Boy, can you even imagine the violent outbreaks that would occur if the rock worshipers ever read FR?
(Who Is Sam Bacile; What Is Terry Jones’ Role in the Middle East Attacks? )
1. Nobody
2. None
The attacks in the middle east are just the continued killing of Americans by muslims out of hatred and fear.
This so called movie is more an excuse given by western meia not willing to admit that islam is evil and responsible for its own actions.
They burn Obama in effigy and chant “Obama Obama, we are all Ossama”
Sounds like a reaction to the boasts “bin Laden is dead and GM is alive” to me.
Which would be a huge embarrassment to Da Won
Who produced the movie should be of less interest than who dubbed the audio.
:)
Did you know that FBI claimed that the guy who provided arms to the old Black Panthers was working for them.
Something is odd about Terry Jones.
Last time a big deal was made and people called him etc etc etc and he backed down as Muzzies got offended and called for death, etc.
This time he has someone from the Military calling him to back down.
Why don’t we see anything about Generals calling Sam Klein or any of these others associated with the film?
This is an effort by muslims and Obama to destroy the first amendment. Fact of the matter is that it DOES NOT matter if these men had ANYTHING to do with the so called movie that is being used as an excuse. The muslim religion demands a caliphate and O wants to give them one...end of story
or how about an Obama psy ops so he can gut the first amendment in the name of antional security
