"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
i watched parts of that movie last night. it is, with out a doubt, one of the stupidest things i've ever seen (i skipped the icky part). if this is the catalyst for these protests that says a lot about the nature and maturity of our enemy.
Is it just me or does it seem bizarre that everyone seems to be talking about some movie and the fact that 2 embassies are attacked on the same day as the 9/11 attacks is presented as if it were just a weird coincidence.
And, of course, it may be a coincidence.
I think I'd prefer if the narrative were less about their claimed reason that "provoked" their behavior and more about their totalitarian behavior.
Deborah Leigh said...Obama vows to hunt the perputrators. Yeah, and OJ is still on the hunt for Nicole's killers, er, murderers. I'm sure the ambassador's family, as well as those who were slain with him, feel comforted.
Aw no.

Replicating Tehran, 1979 on the anniversary of 9-11.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Coincidence.
Time to "get some respect", as the bent-nose boys would say.
It wasn't a coincidence. It was just a convenient excuse.
ReplyDeleteBut hey, let's keep giving the Religionists of Peace billions in foreign and military aid!

ReplyDeleteIt was no coincidence. And it was not over some movie.
The stupid radical Muslims (is that redundant or an oxymoron) just acted as PR for the that movie. I wonder how many views they got?
