The film is just an excuse.

Today there are more embassies around the world being attacked.

Bastards.

Islam - their god, Allah, told the prophet, Mohammed, when he had 20 converts, that he should not try to convert people by force...  then, when he had gone and gotten himself a following, with 10,000 warriors, Allah changed his mind apparently and decided that force was the way to convert people.

Now, we can compare this to the God of the Bible.  God of the Bible has an army of tens of thousands, and tells all but 300 soldiers to go home, because HE wants the glory from the battle.

I guess Allah isn't all that powerful without warriors behind him...

Anyway, those conflicting writings are the reason why Islam can be shown in the media to be a peace-seeking religion while those who follow it can want to convert people through force and kill anyone who doesn't.

Despite history, the Bible never tells Christians to convert people by force.  It's actually something that was picked up from Islam, after they came into the area around Spain... when they were kicked back out, people were forced to become Catholic.

It just sort of spiraled from there.

Anyway, today you have people following Allah who believe they need to kill the infidels, so this will only continue.

Under these cool new rules, we can finally burn Bill Maher at the stake for Religulous.  What's not to like?

Another thing to note is that one of the other employees killed at the embassy was a prominent Eve Online gamer and moderator on the Something Awful forums... He played a diplomat in Eve too.  

Someone with a rather bigger footprint noticed the same thing.

Here's a quote from a book by Winston Churchill, in which he ruminates on what was then called Mohammedanism:

How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries!  Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy.  The effects are apparent in many countries.  Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.  A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.  The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property—either as a child, a wife, or a concubine—must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.  Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities.  Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die.  But the influence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it.  No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.  Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proseltyzing faith.  It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science—the science against which it had vainly struggled—the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.

Borrowed from a post by Phineas at Sister Toldjah's blog.

Money point, still true today: "No stronger retrograde force exists in the world."

400 men armed with AK-47's and RPG's "spontaneously" attacked the consulate and raised the black flag of Al Qaeda over its smoldering ruins without any premeditation.

Thought the 'black flag' was raised over the Cairo embassy.  Briefly, but raised.

The Benghazi consulate attack - totally pre-planned & timed for 9/11.   No effin way it was 'spontaneous'.

AP continues to believe no one will notice or care.  From an AP report today:

Knowingly lying through their teeth.  Journalism now is the relentless dissemination of calculated falsehoods.

New motto for J-schools: "Truth?  They can't handle the truth!"

For the Ivy League J-schools: "Veritas?  Vos non tracto verum!"

Daiwa, I'm shocked at your insensitivity. We need to profusely apologize several times more for offending such a great religion!

The smell.

There's nothing like the smell of Maher burning in the morning! </sarc>

Interesting take by Ben Stein on the MSM treatment of Islam.

Interesting that common citizens sitting at home knew immediately the nature of the Benghazi massacre, but the people we hired to protect our ambassador, watching it on a live drone feed while getting regular telecom updates, for seven hours, couldn't figure out what was going on.

From this, I give you SecDef Leon Pathetica:

Fucking cowards.  OK to let civilians die (I call that at risk), but can't put troops 'at risk.'  Right.  What were they afraid of?  Mogadishu 2.0?  If your blood isn't boiling after all we've learned, I don't know what else would boil it.

A golden opportunity to at least pretend to be President and he hit the rack.  No more 'there' than he was at the first debate.
