(09.14.12)

2. nakoola or DRACULA got INNO BLOOD on his hands.
you ,   there   (09.14.12)
3. Honestly, do we have to protect this guy?
Henry from New York ,   Under the Tuscan Clouds   (09.14.12)
He sounds like human garbage. He tells lie after to lie to save his own skin, tries to screw people over and clearly lacks any shred of moral fibre. I know everyone is guaranteed equal protection before the law, but sometimes you wish there were exceptions.
4. You all dont get it..what people remember is that NBC said
Al   (09.14.12)
he was an Israeli Jew. You can clarify till the cows come home, the damage has already been done. The American Media is not clarifying his true background. In any event The Jew is always blamed. Watch the American media turn this event into a good thing for Obama. They are working for him 24/7. He will be re-elected, there is no doubt in my mind. Say good bye to America. once he is re-elected Israel will be screwed over like no tomorrow. The time to strike Iran has already passed.
5. Blame a jew: it always worked
Tarbouche ,   Aswan   (09.14.12)
So an Egyptian Copt Christian makes a bad film, in bad taste ,and blames an Israeli Jew and Jewish money. He will come to regret it, because he will never see his family again, and will cause more massacres for his people as if their lot is not bad enough Be that as it may, the world should not bury the truth about Islam and the dangers it poses to the world
6. funny 5h!+ really...
er der   (09.14.12)
7. miss use of freedom of speech and religion
Larry ,   Los Angeles   (09.14.12)
The film looked too amatuer for a decent budget, it looked like there was no research on Islam history. This movie was a clear miss use of freedom of speech and freedom of religion. It was a movie to upset and promote bad feelings. For this reason, the man should be arrested and punished.
8. Damage has already been done for Israel, Jews
Tevye ,   Chelm   (09.14.12)
No Western or Muslim media is interested in stating that the actual filmmake was NOT an Israeli jew, but rather an Christian Egyptian...
9. A storm in a tea cup!
Ram ,   London   (09.14.12)
10. He deserve an Oscar
NATAN ,   ISRAEL   (09.14.12)
11. Asa usual the Jews were blamed! Really the best joke this
Alan ,   SA   (09.14.12)
Century....I have strapped myself into a chair ... Apart from the 4 Heroes of USA whose very very sad death was not part of this scam,it just shows where Obama has led America..up the creek!
12. What a piece of slime!
kosta ,   Los Angeles   (09.14.12)
A redirection to stir controversy within israel as if they dont have enough propaganda flowing there way everyday! Shana Tova everyone!
13. There. Have to be reasonable limits on "free speech"
Sue ,   Jerusalem   (09.14.12)
Reasonable guidelines should be set up for free speech in public arenas-such as film, radio , news reports- You start mud slinging on religion and theres no end to the reprecussions. Free speech itself is not a religion. It is a principle of freedom -but freedom to do what? For what purpose. The us constitution never intended these results. The time has come to analyzw this concept and to protect the rights of those spoken about I am not a Muslim but it bothers me that a film could be publicly released without a reasonable review according to Balanced guidelines. As Jews we know only too well how protocols of Zion riled the anger of peasants against us. Where does it stop? Maybe some good will come out of all this uproar in establishing a minimum guideline for Mass publications.
14. natan
nosson tzvi ,   Jerusalem   (09.14.12)
-he no deserve an oscar make our poor cousins look bad with their behavior
15. This guy seems so full of hate for moslems
Arlene ,   Israel   (09.14.12)
that he would do what he did, knowing perfectly well what would be the outcome. I hope they throw him in a dark damp cell to think on the 4 dead in Lybia and Israel once again being blamed for something it didnt do. The film sucks, and the actors and script suck, but these revolting moslems are proving this crap movies message to be right.
16. Film.
frank sol ,   san diego, USA   (09.14.12)
Why cannot Muslims lobby to penalize attacking Islam, same as is now penalized the negation or attacking the Holocaust?
17. Mainstream media engaged in blood libel.....
Bozotheclown   (09.14.12)
They all ran with bogus story that he was "Israeli Jew" just to take blame away from their boy Obama and the fraud known as the Arab Spring
18. Down this road before
Adam Glantz ,   Herndon VA, USA   (09.14.12)
Alas, we Jews have been down this road before. I'll bet a significant slice of humanity will ignore the deception and rest assured with "the Jews did it!". Ugh.
19. Scared and fearful, eh?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.14.12)
Perhaps he should have thought of the consequences before he started cooking methamphetimine and before trying to pass himself off as a Jew and an Israeli. What he deserves is to spend the balance of his pathetic life in prison. Too bad about his family, though.
20. The life of Brian
(09.14.12)
If there is anybody here who remembersmonty pythons life of brian, they will remember that the christian church denounced the film and held demonstrations outside the cinemas showing the film. At the time not one person was harmed, let alone killed. Fast forward to the year 2012. The muslim scum do not like something so the first thing they do is murder inocent people. Says a lot for their religion doesnt it? These people should learn to live and let live, and take a bit of homour in the way it was intended. Its time to reenact the crusades. Lets l Kill all the muslims we can before they kill us
21. Natan # 10 Why not?
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (09.14.12)
I mean, if Obama can get a Nobel prize.
22. #8 - Tevye : Not true!
Maurice ,   Montreal   (09.14.12)
The most important Turkish daily Hurriyet has already published that the person behind the movie is not a Jew but a Coptic Christian. I read it wit my own eyes!
23. Stop blaming the writer for the deaths!
Ben ,   Chutzlaaretz   (09.14.12)
#15 et al, Yes, this guy wrote a crappy, poor taste offensive movie, but HE is not to blame for the deaths of anyone or the rioting. The dead Americans were killed on 9/11 as per an Alquaida plan in revenge for their losses. This stupid movie has been out for 6 months, if you believe it is the reason for the riots you are drinking some serious cool-aid. Bottom line, the Arab Muslim extremist mob just needed an excuse, and this movie is just that, an excuse. Blaming someone who is exercising his free speech (Hate speech or not) for the piss poor behavior of the Neanderthal Arab street is just wrong. Does any other society storm embassies, burn cars, rape and murder when someone makes fun of their faith?
24. Now why would a minority from a Moslem state hate Islam?
Ilan   (09.14.12)
Dhimmi a guess
25. #19 Sarah B, Congratulations! a MATURE reading indeed.
you ,   there   (09.14.12)
26. i dont blame him
Marc Louis ,   Halifax Canada   (09.14.12)
does anyone know how many Copts were crushed by tanks earlier this year by egyptians, how many copt girls have been raped and forced to convert. Egyptians Christians are treated very badly. now he hurt them back the only way he could, i dont blame him at all. move is awful though, nothing like the life of brian.
27. It's a shame
Anna ,   Montreal, Canada   (09.14.12)
I can't imaging fear of Coptic Christians remaining in Egypt. Never the less, the only synagogue in Cairo was unannounced will be closed for High Holidays even before this tragic event. But I find it completely wrong to expose the author of the movie and even to give him stage to blame the others, in this case Jews. Media has no rights to print every word without verifying if it's true. BBC uses this method each and every time when they talk about Israel and Arabs. and now it's an American media.
28. Copts derive from Joseph in Egypt. So, he is Jewish.
Michael ,   California, USA   (09.14.12)
Anybody can be Jewish if so desired since nobody knows the definition.
29. No excuse for violent response from bloodthirsty.
Lemmings Hotline ,   sd usa   (09.14.12)
Dont be apologetic. This film is not a documentary , does not pretend to be authority about historical events surrounding Mohammed's life. Therefore, whoever views this movie must exercise their own SELF RESTRAINT. The violent reaction from the Moslem world does much more damage to their cause than the film. It just proves to most people that Islam is a religion imposed by force conversion, forced adherence. Jihad gives believers to circumvent all righteousness and justice ie - allows them to kill, steal lie, cheat, grow and distribute heroin. If a sefer Torah is desecrated, jews have a custom of fasting. Maybe the moslems should take another page out of the jewish book, in addition to the ones they have already used without naming their sources.
30. Free !! or is it only if no one objects.
Kevin John Lee ,   Glasgow/UK   (09.14.12)
Sha-na-tova !! to all. anyone for the movies,this film should go down a tweet! on Yom Kippur!. Shabbos Rav! calm down.
