31. Mel Gibson made "Passion of the Christ"
Ron G. ,   NYC   (09.14.12)
and he didn't go to jail and the Jews didn't riot or kill anyone. Like the movie or not, this is America and thank God for Freedom of Speech. I do not believe the movie, whatever it is, should be the focus instead of the actions of these lunatics and the future of our foreign policy.
32. Fear is not the way
Jonathan ,   Los Angeles   (09.14.12)
I cant believe what i am hearing, especially from fellow Americans. we do not live in a country were we should be afraid and apologize to a group of people because they threaten us with violence. for all those who talk about this man should be arrested, you are doing exactly what these extremist want this country to become. you are literally asking to have or freedoms taken away. DON'T BE AFRAID!!! WE NEED TO FIGHT FOR WHAT WE BELIEVE IN!!
33. excuse
bernadette ,   south africa   (09.14.12)
no excuse for murder!!!
34. Throw him to the wolves
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.14.12)
He thought absolutely nothing of dragging Jews and the State of Israel -- who had nothing to do with this amateurish attempt at movie-making -- into the fray. And now he's "scared to death" and fearful for his family's safety. Sorry, but I'm less than sympathetic to his plight. Perhaps if he's torn limb from limb, it will satisfy the bloodlust that is making its way across the world, thanks to his actions.
35. The problem is not the movia...
Beary White ,   Norway   (09.14.12)
...it is those masses of islamic followers who believe they are granted to kill, kill, kill, just because they belongs to a cult which praises killings as their main highway to heaven.
36. #8..also norwegian reporters..
Beary White ,   Norway   (09.14.12)
..stated the he was american/jewish. So, the norwegian state channels and other leftist newspapers went on the same road. As a summary we have to admit those nowegian reporters are doing the same as "well trained" imams do, misleading the people/readers/listeners. As a general agenda, norwegian reporters loves to spread negative thing abouth Israel., like the crazy imams in the islamic world.
37. #10 there is not a film in the first place
observer ,   Egypt   (09.14.12)
all of what is known about that "film" are video shots with edited sound that does not match the picture in at least 10 places. All what is known about that "film" came from Y tube and from bastards with contradictory stories. That Basily or Moris Sadek is Evangelical like Fad.
38. Don't be mislead by this ugly silly film
A proud Muslim   (09.14.12)
We as Muslims will keep defend our beloved prophet and all the prophets peace be upon them all because Jews and Christians have abandoned their prophets' messages and deformed it. Moses and Jesus peace be upon them believed in Mohammad peace be upon him before he even was born and they will never support any other religion but Islam. All the prophets were muslims and we love and believe in them all. Victory will be in Islam's side always because God is it's protector and the prophet's protector. I pray that God will forgive the wrong actions and the violent actions which Muslims are committing because they are misleading the world of the true essence of Islam and they are ignoring every thing that our prophet had came with and taught us.
39. nobody buying it
alexandra longisland ,   sands point n.y.   (09.14.12)
because he is, now jewish interests are trying to hide him and put forth the coptic christrian nonsense,the fact that no pictures are available tells you it is more than obvious he looks jewish as well
40. Sam Bacile is a MUSLIM!! This is another one of his scams!!!
Ed ,   USA   (09.14.12)
If you read between the lines you will see that this guy is either a Muslim or a Muslim sympathizer who knew very well that he can stir up trouble for the Jews by claiming a Jew made this film with money from all the other wealthy Jews in the world. Obviously he thought he could get away with it and make this the new Elders of the Protocols of Zion for the Jews.
41. As opposed to all the convicted felons who JOIN Islam
William ,   Israel   (09.14.12)
...in prison.
42. Headlines in hungarian neo nazi websites
Istvan ,   BUDAPEST HUNGARY   (09.14.12)
yesterday . " A jew provoked the death of US diplomat " Headlines today : " A gypsy robbed a bank " Not a word about Benghazi.
43. Amazing display of Islamic terror shilling
Tom W ,   USA   (09.14.12)
Astonishing to read these Islamic apologies by those for whom Jesus in "urine" is "art", Christian religious icons "adorned" with "elephant dung" is "masterpiece". Yeah, go get Rushdie, punish the Danish cartoonist, incarcerate the author of the film "Fitna", let's punish Hirshi Ali...lets all sing Allah akhbar. These posts are the absolute, palpable explanation as to why so many people voluntarily joined the SS or the KGB. The future George Galloway -s are already here for all to see. Despicable posters.
44. Most of you are missing the point
Alex ,   Los Angeles   (09.14.12)
Let me see if I understand this, they kill and destroy to protest a film that accuses them of barbaric behavior and we are blaming the movie maker.
45. #23 THANK YOU
LottiP ,   Canada   (09.14.12)
Finally someone who sees through this whole thing. It is political, people, and the masses are simply manipulated and used. It will become evident soon.
46. Hell with the people who do not respect Islam
A proud Muslim ,   Kufur Qasem   (09.14.12)
They still Muslims but they are ignorant.let me ask you. If someone cursed your mother or father badly and in an ugly way, what would you react??? Don't talk about things you don't know about..we love our prophet more than our families,money and souls...I don't want to justify what are they doing, but they are not the one that should be blamed. This man didn't respect our religion. I dare one of you to give the name of one Muslim which disrespected the others religions..He has no right to did what he did. So be aware of every word which comes out of your mouths because God will ask about it in the judgment day..On this earth you are kings and powerful but in the after life and in the day that we will stand in front of Allah you will be small and feel ashamed for every bad word you ever said about Islam and Muslims
47. #28 wrong as usual
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (09.14.12)
Copts are called The CHRISTIAN Coptic Orthodox Church of Egypt. Your moronic statement is equal to saying all Christians are Jews. There is nothing remotely close between Christianity and Judaism and that is an absolute fact
48. to #1
Michael ,   Tampa FL   (09.14.12)
Why prosecute him? He has a right to express his version of Islam's history. People in this country desecrate Christian symbolism and values all the time and we don't go killing people over it. Muslims burn churches in Egypt and the Christian world does burn Egyptian embassies and kill their ambassadors. Why are we hiding what Islam truly is when practiced the way the founder did.?
49. Muslim always looking for excuses killing infidels,
E,M Jordan is Pales ,   SF   (09.14.12)
Like the conflict between Israel and Muslim is not for that tiny land and the smart people knows it is for destruction of Jewish State. Those attacks on USA embassies has been organized long time ago for memory of 911 and not related to that film,
50. #20: You Were OK Until Last Sentence
emanon ,   USA   (09.14.12)
With that last sentence you are no better than they are. To stand up to them when you are pushed and push back, push back hard, is OK, but to take their aggressive all embracing hatred is not right.
51. #38 - do something about it then!
Bob ,   London   (09.14.12)
52. Violence over this awful movie is inexcusable
Dr. Guy ,   Washington, DC, USA   (09.14.12)
1. You do not have the right to become violent because someone criticizes your religion or depicts any aspect of it in any unfavorable light. Either come up with an intelligent rebuttal, or ignore it. 2. I watched some of this movie, and it is truly awful and poorly dubbed. I feel terrible for the actors too, who were misled by the producers and had different lines. If you're going to watch it, I strongly recommend that you thoroughly inebriate yourself immediately prior to doing so.
53. Rescue his family now!
Ivan ,   Haifa   (09.14.12)
54. ISLAM A WAY OF LIFE
A proud Muslim ,   Kufur Qasem   (09.14.12)
If you follow the news you must have seen what is the organization of "discover Islam Uk " is doing in London. They took the high way and acted the way the prophet might have acted if he is still alive, they are giving all people every where in London a translated Quraan accombined with a translated book about the prophet's life to get to know the real Islam not the "through media version of Islam"..Go's bless them..personally I am trying to put awareness in the minds around me and through Facebook... etc...if any one is interested to let go of stereotypes please talk with me and get to know Islam from a close source...
55. WHAT AN IDIOT!!!
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (09.14.12)
He lies about being a Jew and lies about how it was financed by the Jews, and now he feels bad about it? This guy belong in jail. What a spineless moron!!! YNET did a good job revealing his identity.
56. #38 a proud one
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (09.14.12)
I will not force you to believe in what I believe in and the world will appreciate if if you don't try to force others to believe in yours, If your proud Muslims stayed in Medina and Mecca and did not attack Jerusalem then we would have less problems these days. If you can't respect what I have to say then you should not even be on this site. You can go and make silly movies about Jews and others as much as you want. No one is going to waste their time to harm you. Ham-ass does it everyday. Go check!!
57. #39 - of course some racists were bound to believe the lie
William ,   Israel   (09.14.12)
Get a clue moron. To the ignorant racist "eye", everyone from the region looks "Jewish".
58. To Alexandra from comment #39,
Simon ,   Givatayim, Israel   (09.14.12)
your brain cells are going crazy again - please see to it that you get a job, learn how to write(!) and think(!!), get professional help, then introduce yourself to the world again.
59. This type of Propaganda....
Abie Dee ,   New York   (09.14.12)
What bothers me about this case is that this type of propaganda, the same calibre, is being shown on Arab tv all the time. Only difference is that it portrays JEWS as child killers, murderers, rapists, liars, vermin and spreaders of HIV. This has been going on for years but it seems like nobody except Israelis and some Jews are aware of this. People in the West now seem to be coming down hard, as they should, on the creator of this film but are totally silent when the same crap is playing day and night on Arab tv for billions to be indoctrinated to hatred of Jews. Why the silence, why the double standard ? Would it be different if Jews responded with violence, threats, killing of diplomats and burning down consulates ? I believe it would and THAT is what is so sad.
60. freedom of speech
Jesus Luver ,   Chicago, IL   (09.14.12)
It's very interesting to me that many from my country, the U.S. have said that we should hold this filmmaker responsible for the deaths of the 4 Americans. Have you no understanding of Justice and Truth? This man's free speech is protected, no matter how vile or reckless we may think it is, period! The ones I hold responsible for these acts are the ones who did it, who actually killed them! It's too bad that our Marines have been hamstrung in their protection of those overseas by these new rules of engagement, otherwise we wouldn't even be having this discussion!
