General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the U.S. military's Joint Chiefs of Staff, spoke with Pastor Terry Jones by phone on Wednesday and asked him to withdraw his support for a film whose portrayal of the Prophet Mohammad has sparked violent protests - including one that ended with the death of America's envoy to Libya

Surprised he could even use a phone since his head is up his butt so far. He is one of those two bit brown noses that rose in the ranks by butt kissing and not by skill, intelligence, proficiency, etc. Saw a lot of them in the service and you could fairly smell them before you saw them.
What? Is this a joke? We have a murdered ambassador and our JCOS wants a pastor to do what? Take down a youtube? Incredible.
Exactly. Dempsey should be fired immediately and sent into early retirement. His job is to defend the American people, the American constitution, and all of the constitutionally-protected freedoms that make America (at least for today) a great country. With this pathetic and cowardly phone call, Dempsey has clearly failed to do his job and therefore he should be dismissed immediately and replaced with someone who knows how to defend America and out freedoms. On Romney’s first day as President next January, one of his first actions should be to fire this pathetic excuse for a military leader.
You go to hell, “General”.
If a bunch of us go out and burn down a movie theater and kill the guy who sells popcorn maybe General Kneepads will give Michael Moore a call and tell him to STFU.
Alter Kaker should move to Europe where they arrest people for improper speech.
I know, but WHO came up with the idea it was a film to blame?
If people in the Middle East are offended by video on the internet posted by people in Western nations, then they should just stop watching those videos. We’re not going to retreat one inch in this battle for freedom of speech.
So I interpret this article to mean that General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the U.S. military’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, just seceded the war on terror to the terrorists? Where will the articles of unconditional surrender be signed? Mecca?............/frothing at the mouth mad & sick of this liberal shiite sarc
Maybe if the Marxist General could find a better strategy to neutralize the Islamic threat he would not have to call a small town preacher and beg him to back off.
Are you kidding me?
(coincidentally The Jerk was born a poor black boy too!)
This is Bush-Obama neocon-leftist policy of appeasment and near treason. We need Muslim support for Democracy, ergo we must debase ourselves like Dhimmi. And all to help spread Islamism with the Democracy Jihad.
Hey, where’d ya go? You’re still getting your ass handed to you in this thread, would hate to see you miss one glorious moment of it! LOL
Blaming Jones is a convenient excuse. He’s being used as a patsy.
The whole “film caused the riots” story is too quick, too easy, and too insistent from this crew to be believed.
These were staged, coordinated attacks on our people resulting in murder, by the groups that this POS admin put in place.
And they want to blame some obscure American Pastor - who has every damned right in the world to make whatever film he decides to make, if in fact he DID make a film - to conveniently cover up whatever intelligence failure they may have had.
After Operation Fast And Furious and their blatant, outright attempt to wipe out our Second Amendment, I believe NOTHING that comes out of their lying faces.
That a US General Officer should be calling a private citizen to “suggest” that he back off is just beyond the pale - but again, with this crowd, why is ANYTHING surprising to anyone out here. “Suggestions” from the govzilla are ultimately backed up with the implied threat of coercive force. To me, it appears to be an attack on the First Amendment now - a ready-made excuse to label anything that offends these animals as “Hate Speech”.
Election Day in November is Take Out The Trash Day. Priority One.
If leftist idiots can dream up a connection between Sam Bacile's film and the murders in Libya, I wonder what they will say when this film comes out and innocent Americans die as a result???
Trailer for Kathryn Bigelow's forthcoming film about the killing of Osama bin Laden, Zero Dark Thirty, is released online
The first trailer for Kathryn Bigelow's forthcoming film about the killing of Osama Bin Laden has debuted online.
Now titled Zero Dark Thirty, the drama from the double Oscar-winning director of The Hurt Locker features a high-profile cast including Jessica Chastain, Joel Edgerton, Mark Duplass, Kyle Chandler and Mark Strong. It centres on the US Navy Seal unit that raided Bin Laden's compound in northern Pakistan on 2 May last year on the orders of US president Barack Obama, killing the al-Qaeda leader in a covert operation.
No doubt the mob organizers—MB and AQ. It is just a pretext to draw a big crowd to cover their activities.
Dear General Dempsey: The pastor might feel constrained by his vocation from giving you the only answer that is appropriate. So allow me to do so in his stead: ..l.
