LOS ANGELES (AP) — An Israeli filmmaker based in California went into hiding after a YouTube trailer of his movie attacking Islam’s prophet Muhammad sparked angry assaults by ultra-conservative Muslims on US missions in Egypt and Libya. The US ambassador to Libya and three American members of his staff were killed.
Speaking by phone Tuesday from an undisclosed location, writer and director Sam Bacile remained defiant, saying Islam is a cancer and that the 56-year-old intended his film to be a provocative political statement condemning the religion.

Bacile is an obvious Israeli agent provocateur, probably Mossad, who ought to be deported from the US immediately. Send him right back to Israel where Hamas can look him up.
Wake up people. Israel is NOT our friend. Neither is Saudi Arabia or Egypt.

The New York Times, unlike this AP story, is casting doubt on whether Bacile is who he says he is and whether there's really such a film (beyond the preview on YouTube). The Israeli government says it knows nothing about him, not that that means anything.
Bacile is reported to be a friend of Netanyahu who is trying his best to sucker the US into a war with Iran. Let the fundamentalist Israelis and the fundamentalist Iranians fight each other without sacrificing American blood.
