Thx for the reply.
I just saw that Egypt had been warned of an attack on the embassy.

The Egyptian Al-Masry Al-Youm newspaper reportedly obtained a copy of a top secret letter addressed to Major General Samy Sedhom, first assistant Interior Minister for Social Security, on September 4, which stated that intelligence services notified the ministrys national security body that elements from the organization in Egypt and Gaza were planning attacks on the two embassies.
Security sources said the letter was forwarded to Egyptian security officials, informing them to undertake the necessary measures. The sources added that Military Intelligence informed the Interior Ministry one week ago that 22 terrorists in Sinai are planning to attack vital facilities and police checkpoints, according to the Egypt Independent.
This was definitely pre-arranged and timed to be their 9/11 “celebration.” They were apparently also chanting (in Egypt, I believe) “We are all Osama.”
The movie had nothing to do with it; I think it was probably a sudden inspiration of somebody to blame it on that, knowing that our miserable government would then apologize. Well, actually, our miserable government would have apologized no matter what the Muslims did.
Ping 100, interesting article on forwarning
