KABUL — Islamic militants sought Tuesday to capitalize on anger over an anti-Islam video that was produced in the United States, saying a suicide bombing that killed 12 people in Afghanistan was revenge for the film and calling for attacks on US diplomats and facilities in North Africa.
The attempt by extremists across the region to harness Muslim fury over a film that denigrates the prophet Mohammed posed new concern for the United States, whose embassies and consulates have been targeted, and in some cases breached, during riots and protests over the past week.

If the media narrative is correct and the video actually is the cause of the widespread mayhem, what does that say about the stability and maturity of of the Islamic world? Shouldn't those riots suposedly over a ridiculous satirical video clip that hardly anyone has seen and has been floating around the internet for months cause us as a society to seriously reexamine our relationship with the Islamic culture? Shouldn't we be asking ourselves what is the point of jeopardizing the lives and limbs of the thousands of troops we have placed in the midst of a culture that is so unstable that they routinely go on deadly rampages over the most trivial of incidents? Shouldn't we be figuratively grabbing people like Hillary Clinton and others by the shoulders and trying to shake some sense into them for even hinting at surrendering parts of the 1st Amendment in a futile attempt to placate this alien culture?
These protests have been orchestrated largely through the machinations of the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) which represents 57 predominantly Moslem countries and acts as a powerful voting bloc at the UN to silence all discussions of Islamic Sharia law particularly as it pertains to the rights of children, women, apostates and religious minorities. The OIC and the Obama Administraiton, with Hilary Clinton at the center, have been holding regular meetings in Istanbul and Washington, to decide on a Resolution that would secure binding adherence from all UN member states and which, in effect, would silence all discussion, analysis and criticism of Islam. This would be done by calling for restrictions on freedom of speech on the grounds that any speech would could prove to be an 'incitement' to violence should be regarded as 'criminal.' This is a no-win situation for the Western world if we are foolish enough to agree to it because, in Islam (doctrines, traditions and law manuals) any references to Islam, 'allah', Mohamed, Sharia or the Islamic State or Ruler, which may be considered to be 'insulting' or insufficiently 'respectful', are by their very nature regarded as 'blasphemous' and warring aginst Islam and its 'deity' and 'prophet' and therefore 'incite' a determined (i.e. violent) response from Moslems.

Take a look at that picture. What you're seeing is the lowest form of human life. If our government makes any concessions to these ignorant depraved barbarians on any free speech issue, it will be a mistake of epic proportions.
