“The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims — as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions,” it said. “We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others.” – From the Embassy in Cairo

Obama told us on September 13th: “Glen and Tyrone had each served America as Navy SEALs for many years, before continuing their service providing security for our diplomats in Libya. They died as they lived their lives — defending their fellow Americans, and advancing the values that all of us hold dear.
Ladies and gentlemen, friends, allies, despots and dictators,
It’s time to connect the dots and look at the bigger picture.
Back in 2002, we caught a Member of the Muslim world, Abu Sufian Ibrahim Ahmed Hamuda bin Qumu , in Pakistan and locked him up in GITMO.
Regarding the attack in Libya a week ago today, here is what we know.
