Another
take
The gist is that this was a planned attack in hopes of provoking a violent response from the Marine guards there. Apparently, this is a fairly standard tactic in certain locations around the world, not just the Arab world.
In related
news, the AP has published the identity of the person who made the film at the heart of this incident.
******************
Law enforcement has confirmed that the anti-Muslim movie blamed for attacks at US diplomatic buildings around the world was made by Los Angeles filmmaker Nakoula Basseley Nakoula.
The Associated Press reported early Thursday that Nakoula, 55, is responsible for the "Innocence of Muslims,” the film that was said to ridicule the prophet Muhammad and, in turn, prompt violent assaults on US land overseas, including missions in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia and the US Embassy in Yemen.
*****************
So, we now have allegations that both the pretext AND the result are both staged events. Hmmmmm.
Draw your own conclusions.
