Pathetic how the media has accepted the premise that all this is about the film. The Islamists know how to play the media, and liberals, like a fiddle. They’ve figured out that if they can tie their violent outbursts to provocotive cartoons or films or whatever, the post-modern West will tie itself in knots and essentially blame itself.

The media knows better.

What is pathetic is that the Media is working for the Muslims in trying to propagate this lie.

If it hadn’t been this movie it would have been something else. The Muslims want war, and if they keep this crap up they are going to get it.

I went to ABC Australia, and they are updating on this and providing pictures. Their media is saying that the protestors are claiming they are there to defend their prophet over the film, so they are blaming the film as well. They have this block in the article:

The film that triggered the unrest
The film titled Innocence of Muslims mocks the Prophet Mohammed and Islam.
Touches on themes of paedophilia and homosexuality.
Features low-budget production values, with actors in false beards in front of stock desert footage.
Cast members have said they thought it was a fictional epic, and later found their lines had been dubbed over.
Reportedly written by Nakoula Bassily Nakoula, 55, an Egyptian Copt on conditional release from prison.
Directed by 65-year-old Alan Roberts.
Reportedly produced by a US religious group called Media for Christ.
Promoted by a network of right-wing Coptic and Evangelical Christians with a radical anti-Muslim agenda.
Among them is Florida pastor Terry Jones, who spoke to The World Today about his involvement.
