Can a right wing zealot insurance salesman, a felon, and a not-for-profit* Christian charity be responsible for the killing of four Americans.

The shared belief that radical Islam threatens the world brought together an ex-convict, an insurance salesman and a Christian charity in production of a crudely crafted film that ridicules Muslims and the Prophet Muhammad and has incited violent protests across the Middle East.

Media for Christ, a nonprofit that raised more than $1 million last year "to glow Jesus' light" to the world, was listed as the production company for the film. Steve Klein, a California insurance salesman and Vietnam War veteran who has spent years protesting at mosques and espousing hatred of radical Muslims, acted as the film's promoter.

And Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, who authorities say has used multiple names and was convicted of bank fraud, says he managed logistics for the film.

*Isn't it about time we do away with these silly tax exemptions?

It's a fuckin movie.  He's responsible for nothing.  You're as bad as the right wing psychos you hate.

I disagree..

only because the reaction was his goal.. I know the reaction was outrageous and unacceptable.. it's still the reaction these people wanted..

we don't see "Christ" as so revered as Muhammad is to muslims.. BUT, piss on him  and call it 'art'and our own people go ape-shit.. remove a Christmas tree from in front of Macy's and Fox news will spend 7 years whining about the killing of Christmas..and inciting people against you.

The maker of this movie wanted this reaction and he did everything he could to elicit that reaction...it was his only purpose.. so in this case, Yes.. he is at fault for the death of 4 Americans..

and Mitt Romney is at fault for condemning more Americans who were surrounded by hostile protestors and trying to ease the tension before they lost their own lives.. who the fuck does that?

I think the guy wanted this reaction also. I just don't know if I would go so far as to say he expected people like the Ambassador to die because of it.

Eh, fallout is fallout.  If you get some big fish in the process...all the better to get that holy war going.  These assholes are loading pre-cum in their shorts at the thought.
