Anti-Islam Movie Incites Violence

American VoicesOpinion ISSUE 48•37 Sep 12, 2012

The 14-minute trailer for an obscure low-budget movie that mocks the life of Muslim prophet Muhammad and was produced by an Israeli-American real estate developer last year has been blamed for yesterday’s protest at the U.S. embassy in Egypt, as well as the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya that killed four American diplomats. What do you think?

  • “Great. Just when we were getting along so well with Libya.”

  • “If we as a country were all held responsible for every bad film made here, there would be a lot of blood on Michael Bay’s hands.”

    Leonard Nicolaou –

  • “I hate movie trailers, too. It’s like, ‘Just start the movie, already!’”
