So in gratitude for freeing them from the jackboots of the Taliban at their necks, the thousands of deaths of our own citizens in that endeavor, the goat roping, shoeless multitudes are throwing rocks and calling for our eradication, according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stripes.com\/news\/middle-east\/afghanistan\/afghan-protest-on-anti-islam-film-turns-violent-1.189604\">Associated Press<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In Kabul on Monday, the air was thick with smoke on Jalalabad road &#8211; a main thoroughfare into the city center where the crowd burned shipping containers and tires. At least one police vehicle was burned by the mob before they finally dispersed around midday, according Daoud Amin, the deputy police chief for Kabul province.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the morning, men lobbed rocks from the pavement and lobbed them at Camp Phoenix, a U.S. military base that lies along the road. More than 20 police officers were slightly injured &#8211; all from being hit by rocks, said Gen. Fahim Qaim, the commander of a city quick-reaction police force.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Death to America!&#8221; and &#8220;Death to those people who have made a film and insulted our prophet,&#8221; shouted the crowd. Police officers shot into the air to hold back about 800 people and prevent them from pushing toward government buildings downtown, said Azizullah, a police officer at the site who, like many Afghans, only goes by one name.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile the Obama Administration sends out their least credible spokesdingus, Susan Rice to tell us to pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, says <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/2012\/09\/17\/obama-administration-libyan-president-clash-over-explanation-on-consulate\/\">Fox News<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;What sparked the violence was a very hateful video on the Internet,&#8221; Rice said on &#8220;Fox News Sunday.&#8221; &#8220;It was a reaction to a video that had nothing to do with the United States.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>She also repeated the administration&#8217;s message that the attacks, which started Tuesday in Egypt and spread to more the 20 U.S. posts in the region, were &#8220;spontaneous,&#8221; not planned or timed for the 11th anniversary of the 9\/11 terror attacks. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is in spite of reports that the administration had been warned of the impending attacks days before Sept. 11th.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The idea that this criminal and cowardly act was a spontaneous protest that just spun out of control is completely unfounded and preposterous,&#8221; [Libyan President Mohammed el-Megarif] told NPR.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Megarif, president of the Libyan National Congress, also said the violence, including the timing, bears the markings of an Al Qaeda attack. <\/p>\n<p>He said the attacks were carried out by foreigners who have been infiltrating his country since the uprising ended the dictatorship of the late Muammar al-Qaddafi and that they used the Cairo protests as a cover to attack the U.S. Consulate.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Funny how when both US presidential candidates are doing their best to ignore the war against al-Qaeda, the issue finds it&#8217;s own place in the news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Afghans have apparently joined the world-wide &#8220;death to America&#8221; chants in response to the movie &hellip; <a title=\"Death to you, too, bud\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=32039\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Death to you, too, bud<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32039","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-terror-war"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32039"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32039\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
