U.S. Embassy Condemns Religious Incitement
September 11, 2012
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

"We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others"

There is something profoundly unsettling about the wording of that apology.
It subtly redefines the First Amendment to suggest that the controlling political regime can interpret that "universal right," which borders on treason. Treason agaist all the citizens of the Republic.

This "apology" appears to have been written by a pre-adolescent. You can't hurt beliefs. You can only hurt individuals, and then only if that hurt is not defined by the supposed victims.

The First Amendment Right is absolute. No attempt to reduce it in any manner is acceptable.
