A crowd of 125 heavily armed, community-organized, al-Qaeda movie critics just happened to show up at the US consulate following a peaceful dinner with the Turkish representative. It sounds like the movie got a '5 mortars' rating (which is apparently NOT good).

Question: Is there a verified hit counter on the YouTube movie 'clip' (preview, section, snippet) they claim 'went viral'? Some are saying the 'viral' viewership was under 300 hits.

Early news reports claimed that an anti-Muslim movie sparked the violence. This could not have legitimately been the cause of spontaneous riots. That evening, some 15 hours after the Egyptian protests began, the “Innocence of Muslims” YouTube trailer, posted way back in July, had garnered only 1,000 views. It should have been viral by then, but it is doubtful that many Muslims had even heard of the film.
