The brainwashing is to the extreme. Was it Salmen(sp) Rushdie they put a bounty on his head because he dared to write in anything but glowing tones about Mohammed. The riot mentality is fed by their religious leaders. The reaction is far over the top over an internet film but it will continue. The best thing we as Americans could do is pull back our troops, our Ambassadors and especially our money. Let them eat sand. Times like this is when a real emphatic leader is needed. I don't think we have one now and I really do not hold out hope the other candidate is either.

Ronald Reagan was the last emphatic leader in my opinion. Prior to him maybe JFK even though I did not always agree with his politics.

Well since Romney thinks 250,000 is the salary of middle class.......I don't consider him too empathetic to myself, personally ;)

And another thing this film was not endorsed by the U.S. government as our official position concerning Muslims. A film made by someone who is American is carte blanche to kill Americans? That makes sense. NOT.

I will say I believe both candidates are out of touch with real Americans.

These extremists don't understand our concept of freedom of speech. They view a movie made by an American as representative of the whole United States and its government. We see satire, they see a horrible insult to something they consider very holy.

Yeah, extremists of any type don't really get satire, in my family we cut our teeth on sarcasm growing up ;) I felt real confortable meeting my hubby's family upon learning the term slagging......

Camel jockeys have been killing folks over religion for 2,000 years. Our people just happened to be a fresh target in their area. Most of those folks have never seen that film clip. They do whatever crazy stuff their inman tells them to. Our policy of encouraging the overthrow of regimes has led to this happening. I feel it will implode in a nuclear bloodbath within a short time frame.

Camel jockeys?

Well I'm glad to see that ignorance isn't a geographic phenomena...

A very good article ... except kind of pointless. Nothing that we don't already know and nothing that will change the viewpoints of extremists (hence the term that has been given to them ...)

But in essence, a valid description in ways.
