The anti-Islam video that sparked protests in Libya and Egypt is "disgusting and reprehensible," Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Thursday, but it's no reason for violence -- especially against diplomats.
"Let me state very clearly -- and I hope it is obvious -- that the United States government had absolutely nothing to do with this video. We absolutely reject its content and message. America's commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation," Clinton said at the State Department, as she held a pre-scheduled meeting with Moroccan leaders.

The news media has been among the most awful liars about the entire war on terrorism, especially when it comes to leaving out the fact that we didn’t just have an offensive video, we allowed plenty of people in the Middle East to be killed. I am far from being a Ron Paul supporter, but at the same time, think about it, if some other country was ever allowed targeted killings of Americans suspected of being terrorists, regardless of whether or not we felt that way, how would you, as an American, feel? Then, in addition to seeing members of your family killed for suspicion of guilt, you get to see a movie that has a few things that you disagree with? That being said, the attacks on the embassy are abhorrent, especially considering that the ambassadors do a lot to try and raise awareness of the countries where they serve and try to do some helpful things for the people there. But at the same time, the media leaves out plenty of the things our government authorizes, well, I guess that there’s plenty of crooks and thugs to go around on both sides...
Screw you, hillary. We cannot apologize every time someone makes a mohammed cartoon or a movie. They will just have to get used to it.
YOU are disgusting and reprehensible.
Your association with the female muslim is disgusting and reprehensible.
‘disgusting and reprehensible’??
Really??
Nahhh... it’s ‘disgusting and reprehensible’ when you turn the Oval Office into your own personal man-cave.
Unless of course you're a woman who needs a good beating from her husband or a Jew or Christian, in which case all bets are off.
Now one news organization after the other will come up with different description to describe how disgusting it is, each will attempt to outdo the other, muslims are justified in their outrage, and it's all the fault of the “Right Wing Extremist” that are filled with hate.
“Video is ‘disgusting and reprehensible’”
Why?
Was it too true?
First your husband declines to take care of Osama, and now you want a clean record, and no responsibilty for your touchy feely policies.
Easier to blame a video, than realize this is payback, in a coordinated manner.
How about this for an idea.
Libya/Egypt. Clean up this mess, and don’t count on any $$ from us until you do. You are on your own...
"Tolerance" does NOT mean that you APPROVE of whatever it is that you are tolerating (e.g., Islam, homosexuality) and that you dare not criticize it, even harshly. No. Indeed, "tolerance" implies that you DISAPPROVE of the thing tolerated; it's just that you do not imprison, kill, etc., the people engaged in the tolerated behavior.
Also, Hillary, we believe in free speech in this country.
Our “Secretary of Skate” is out there blaming a movie for recent events in the ME. SHE is “disgusting and reprehensible”.
Naturally, this evil Administration is pretty much ignoring that and instead trying to lay the blame someplace else like that nothingburger of a movie.
There must be a special place in hell for these wicked politicians and their media enablers.
Only the TRUTH is disgusting and reprehensible to them.
Badly made video, but the TRUTH is in there. It would not even qualify as a B movie, so bad it would have to be Z minus.
my wife and I saw this already and as we were watching it we were so pissed off.
Islam this islam that, they are nice etc
Mrs. Clinton does not in any way make me feel more ‘secure, democratic, and prosperous’. Rather I have this gut feeling that Ms. Clinton has a problem with Vodka....the constant blowsy appearance...is our Department of State more of a joke?
She probably thinks “The Last Temptation of Christ” is high art.
Why do we only care about Muzzie sensibilities? Because they riot.
So what message does that send? Hey, if you want something, riot for it.
More than that, it’s called our president is trying to fight a war with minimal casualties against terrorists. Well, apparently, the old saying goes “no such thing as a free lunch” well, when you want to fight terrorism, it’s not going to be casualty-free.
As far as offensive material goes, the news media is leaving out the fact that there has been a targeted killing program running in the Middle East. Think about it: how would you feel if some foreign country claimed the right to blow up whole families, funeral processions, or buildings full of people just because one person in the crowd or building was a criminal suspect. Then, after seeing people in your family killed off, you get to see a film that ridicules your belief system. It sure would irritate me. However, the real criminals are the president and his propaganda wing in the media for leaving out all the blood that President Barack Hussein Obama likes to spill, to make him look like a good president, and when you leave out the part about all the people we physically killed and say that it was just the video, well, it makes taking away American freedom of expression more appealing.
She has made a career of pandering to Muslims from the time she was an attorney defending Palestinian Muslims through her efforts to assist them as the First “Lady” in the Balkan catastrophe, and right through her term as Secretary of State.
The GOP should GET SMART and link this evil *itch as much as possible to the catastrophe she helped create in the Middle East which is now unfolding before our eyes.
Its a God-given opportunity to thoroughly discredit her and destroy her chances for election later or appointment ot the SCOTUS.
