On September 13, actress Bette Midler wrote on her Twitter page, Who are the idiots who made the video and put it on YouTube? When do we meet them? They should be charged with murder.
The video she is referring to is, as Im sure you know, the ultra-low-budget anti-Islam film that the media and the White House are saying caused the rioting in Cairo, Libya, and other Muslim-dominated cities..
Heres the way liberal logic works: Somebody offended some Muslim; those Muslims killed some innocent people; the anti-Muslim film and those who made it are accomplices in the murder of the four embassy staff members in Cairo. This despite the following from The Washington Post:
But senior U.S. officials and Middle East analysts raised questions Wednesday about the motivation for the Benghazi attack, noting that it . . . followed an al-Qaeda call to avenge the death of a senior Libyan member of the terrorist network.
So it appears the murder of four American embassy workers, one an ambassador, was actually retaliation for the killing of a Libyan terrorist, not for an amateur film made by, well, we really dont know. If the blame-game is as Midler explains it, then the Obama Administration is complicit since Obamas folks ordered the killing.
What would Bette Midlers say if an emotionally unstable woman had seen one of her movies and subsequently, because of the movies depressing story, committed suicide? Would Ms. Midler turn herself in for murder? Does she also believe Al Gore should be charged for the murder-suicide of an Argentinean husband and wife who, fearing the global warming Gore kept saying was going to get everybody in the future, shot their 2-year-old in the back, their 7-month-old in the chest, and then killed themselves?
Muslims in the Middle East do not need provocation. Drawing a picture of Mohammed, as one Danish cartoonist did, is not provocation. The satire publication called The Onion ran a comic of Buddha, Jesus, Ganesh, and Moses engaging in an orgy. Is that not provocative? Of course it is. But the body count was zero because Buddhists, Christians, Hindus, and Jews are not bloodthirsty psychotics.
And yesterday, more peaceful Muslims stormed yet more embassies, one of them being the German embassy in Sudan. The Muslims planted the Islamic flag at the site and set the building aflame. Its been assumed that they chose the German embassy because German Chancellor Angela Merkel, bless her heart, gave an award to the aforementioned Danish cartoonist who dared draw Mohammed.
We know who the problem is and it is most certainly not non-Muslims. If Christians were as peaceful as Muslims are, every church in America with a picture of Jesus would be a smoldering ash heap

I am DISGUSTED by what I am seeing on Fox right now. Geraldo Rivera is attacking Sam Becil for his anti-Islam film.
He’s just said that the man has “blood on his hands”
WTF! The Obozo admin and the MUSLIMS THEMSELVES are the ones with blood on their hands, you stupid f***. Why the hell does Fox employ this turd? He has no respect for free speech, and is clearly encouraging some Muslim maniac to kill the filmmaker. I cannot even begin to understand idiots like this who bow to Muslims and free them from all responsibility for their actions.
Geraldo, YOU ARE A SCUMBAG.
Now Geraldo is trying to say Netanyahu is “strong-arming Obama into attacking Iran.” This guy is a despicable goofball, and his mustache is the trademark of a pedophile.
I don’t remember hearing about Vietnamese flying planes into our skyscrapers after the Vietnam War.
I don’t remember Vietnamese burning our embassy and killing the Ambassador after the release of Rambo; First Blood Part 2
Hey Bette!
When are charges of murder going to be filed against Planned Parenthood in the death of Dr George Tiller (”Tiller the Killer”) because of the way they inflamed and harassed Pro-Lifers. They caused the guy who pulled the trigger to do it, by your “logic.”

It was re-released after Labor Day, and was now dubbed in Arabic. It was specifically aimed at the Middle East and was patently anti-Islamic.
Geraldo Rivera has abandoned any pretext of journalistic ethics. His facts are all wrong. This video was an attempt to start a war, or provide a stalking horse for those who wanted to start a war, period.
BS. I could find 50 anti-Islam videos on Youtube in under ten minutes. Are those all part of a conspiracy aimed at the Middle East, trying to start a war? No. Many people have negative feelings towards the religion of Islam, especially Coptic Christians like Becil, and make fun of it. Look at,
BarenakedIslam
Tundratabloids

This is not the fault of the film or its maker. This is the fault of useful Muslim idiots enraged for no reason, being used by groups like Ansar Al Sharia as cover. Some fault can also be put at the feet of Obozo/Haji Hillary for their incompetence.
Just because someone takes a shot at Islam, they are not trying to spark violence. If this were the case, then we should throw Bill Maher in jail for Religulous, because that might have been an attempt to start a “war” with the Christians.
You are right on Geraldo though. A questionable stain on the boxer shorts of journalism.
Bette Midler thinks she’s Joy Behar!
I can see that you don’t understand what I was saying.
This video’s transformation with Arabic dubbing was done because the attacks were premeditated and the Obama administration needed a scapegoat, something to blame for the attacks.
It is too, too convenient that this video was dubbed into Arabic after Labor Day.
We can see through it, but people like G.Rivera cannot.
