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. Today, the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, Americans are honoring our patriots and those who serve our nation as the fitting response to the enemies of democracy. Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others." Wow, so we have to apologize for some guy who makes a movie that pisses people off? Why didn't anyone apologize to me for Religious by Bill Maher back in 2008? From Secretary of State Hillary Clinton:"We condemn this vicious and violent attack that took their lives, which they had committed to helping the Libyan people reach for a better future." Well...I guess that's a little better...but I liked the way Reagan handled things. Gaddafi was threatening assassinations, we all knew about his terrorisat training camps, so Ronald Reagan dropped bombs on his house. Guess what? That little pipsqueak of a colonel never gave us grief again. Of course, Gaddafi's dead now...thanks to the "Arab Spring" everyone was so excited about. Isn't democracy grand? Look at how things have changed in Egypt, Libya, and Syria! Doesn't it just fill you with hope for the future?
