Hezbollah supporters to protest against Mohammad film (Iran wants in on the action)

Supporters of the Shi'ite militant group Hezbollah are set to hit the streets of Beirut on Monday after its leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah called for protests against a film that portrays the Prophet Mohammad as a womanizer and a fool.

Lebanon has already seen protests over the Internet video in the mainly Sunni Muslim city of Tripoli. One person was killed and 14 wounded in clashes with security forces on Friday after Islamist protesters set fire to a U.S. fast food restaurant.

Nasrallah, who heads the largest armed force in Lebanon, has the ability to muster huge numbers of Shi'ite Muslims in the Mediterranean state of 4 million people.

Days of anti-American violence provoked by the amateurish video, produced in California, have put Western embassies across the Muslim world on high alert. Protests have erupted from London to Lahore.

"We call for protests tomorrow in the southern suburbs (of Beirut) at 5 o'clock (10.00 a.m. EDT)," Nasrallah said in a televised speech late on Sunday evening.

If this is indeed a false flag effort, it would make sense to lift the veil.

Speaking of Iran, I read that there is some suspicion that the film may actually have been made by and funded by the Iranian secret service, possibly in conjunction with radicals in Egypt. The film was overdubbed, and the original evil character was not Mohammed, but somebody known variously as George, the Terrorist George, or by his last name, which was Brown - or by the initials TB, the Terrorist Brown. This, of course, was how the Islamics always referred to George Bush, as the Terrorist Bush.

I think it’s very possible that Iran was behind all this. The MB in Egypt no doubt helped, and they found a way of blaming the Copts as well, which would make sense, since the MB wishes to “cleanse” Egypt of all non -Islamic influences but because they are officially in power now, they can no longer be too obvious about it and must rely on the mob.

Hezbollah knows one thing about waste products.

The more you stir them the worse they stink.

Hezbollah is merely taking advantage of the Media and Obama’s ignorance in blaming this film for the problem.

Now they will stir it to get all of the stink they can.

Wow! Another planned/un-planned, spontaneous, well organized and surprising event! The White House will be SO surprised. Don’t worry, Barry read about this yesterday, but Jay Carney will be SHOCKED when it happens.

IGNORANCE you say? I know what you mean, but they are not ignorant in what they are doing, does Malice Aforethought describe them? I looked it up and seems to fit this situation.

They know perfectly well what they are doing.
