Nakoula/Bacile Arrested

On Thursday, Nakoula Nakoula, the “film maker” responsible for the pathetic YouTube video clip which the Obama administration blames for violence across the Muslim world, was arrested for violating the terms of his probation.

As part of that probation, which was part of a conviction for bank fraud for which Nakoula served more than a year in prison, he was not allowed to use a computer or the Internet without prior approval of his probation officer. He did not get that permission prior to posting his silly video clip to YouTube.

The only part of this story which is interesting is the part we don’t know yet: How will the Obama administration, desperate to not be responsible for the first murder of an American ambassador since the Carter administration, use this news to further try to blame “a criminal” for the failure of the State Department?

By the way, Fox News reported today that despite all the stories we were told right after the attack on our consulate in Benghazi about an FBI investigation, not a single FBI agent has yet been to Benghazi. Nice job controlling the crime scene. Is there any chance that there is anything left for the FBI to investigate?

Incompetence piled upon incompetence.

By the way, if Libya is too dangerous for a team of FBI agents, then why was it considered safe enough for Ambassador Stevens and a skeleton and perhaps unarmed “security” crew — not comprised of US Marines?

by force of law? sorry, Moonbeam, but:

1- you can't mandate 'respect'

2-not everything people 'should' do translates into enforced 'must do'

When Islam recognizes that we will not shut up, they will be one step further away from vaporization.

More and more this is reminding of the Reichstag fire where some pathetic Jew mayor may not have set fire to a prominent building as an excuse to violently blame all Jews. Crystal Nacht.

Obama's persistent reference to this video is quite disturbing to me and the arrest of this guy in this context also very troubling.

over and over, crowds of protesters throughout the middle east are chanting "Obama, we are all Osama!"...how that translates into 'the movie no one has seen is responsible' is anyone's guess; i suppose his Administration's repeated chants of 'we killed bin la-den, we killed bin la-den...' and boasts about the number of drone strike kills are no big deal to the Islamists, right? RIGHT????

None of you get it. This administration does not care: let me say it again, they do not care. If it makes them look good, they tell the truth, if it makes them look bad, they lie. All that matters in this administration is how they look and the political impact, nothing else. Nothing. As long as it furthers their continuation in office it is fine for them to lie and mislead. The president is only engaged if it makes him look good, if it requires work, forget about it. He would rather go on the View where people just suck up to him, rather than answer to the American people. They just do not care, they got theirs and the heck with everyone else.
