Uproar over Youtube video continues in Libya

Friday, September 14, 2012 - 5:36pm

The anger directed towards America spread across borders and closer to U.S. Embassy walls Thursday.
Demonstrators in Yemen tried to break through the Embassy gate. 
Police fired warning shots and tear gas in Egypt and Iranians shouted "death to america" outside of the Swiss Embassy in Tehran since there are no official diplomatic relations with Washington.
It is anti American fury fueled by a 14 minute anti Islamic film clip on youtube that the American government denounces.
let me state very clearly and i hope it is obvious that the united states government had absolutely nothing to do with this video. we absolutely reject its content and message.

Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton rejected the video but called upon governments to stop the violence resulting from it.
No act of violence shakes the resolve of the United States Of America
the U.S. is sending two warships toward Libya in case they're needed as the government tries to figure out if the attack was planned. US intelligence officials believe it is very unlikely it was core Al Qaeda behind the attack.
There are some in Libya showing support for the slain Ambassador. However these signs of peace could be overshadowed by violence from crowds who believe a video speaks not just for itself but for a country.
 

Meanwhile, there are more mysteries about the film that sparked this violence.
It appears the filmmaker behind it may have used a false name
and the cast and crew members say in a statement they were "grossly misled" about the film's intent.
