Israeli filmmaker in hiding after anti-Islam movie sparks deadly Libya, Egypt protests - Israel News | Haaretz Daily Newspaper

No one knows who he is. There is no record of Israeli citizenship and he doesn't exist in the US. Fake name?

Probably.. It could be Morris Sadek.. Egyptian Copt.. who hates Islam irrationally.

The movie had nothing to do with the murders. The movie is a not an excuse for murder. The movie did not "lead" to anything.

Blaming inanimate objects is stupid. If people were not oppressed like animals by crazy islamists, they would not act like animals.

You have a popular mainstream israeli mainstream news source haaretz, confirming the filmmaker is an israeli.


Also the L.A. Times and CNN and other credible mainstream media sources also confirm this.

I think it's pretty pathetic that you think an Egyptian would be behind this film.

Why do you deflect from the OP topic? nothing worth saying? so you resort to an attack on the poster? standard hasbara procedure.

U.S. identifies anti-Muslim filmmaker


WASHINGTON (AP) -- Federal authorities have identified a Coptic Christian in southern California who is on probation after his conviction for financial crimes as the key figure behind the anti-Muslim film that ignited mob violence against U.S. embassies across the Mideast, a U.S. law enforcement official told The Associated Press on Thursday.


The official said authorities had concluded that Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, 55, was behind "Innocence of Muslims," a film that denigrated Islam and the prophet Muhammad and sparked protests earlier this week in Egypt, Libya and most recently in Yemen. It was not immediately clear whether Nakoula was the target of a criminal investigation or part of the broader investigation into the deaths of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans in Libya during a terrorist attack.

I will take my sources including the mainstream israeli source confirming it was an israeli over yours.

A retort to what? Do you have a point?

The only "point" that I can see in the OP is the ridiculous claim that the movie is to blame for crazy people.


Film by Sam Bacile, who self-identifies as an Israeli Jew, led to protests at the U.S. consulate in Libya and the U.S. Embassy in Cairo; one American staffer killed in clashes.

The film didn't lead to anything. Believing that the Koran is a viable substitute for a constitution... now that leads to a whole lot of stupid.

Re: Israeli filmmaker in hiding after anti-Islam movie sparks deadly Libya, Egypt pro

The search for those behind the provocative, anti-Muslim film implicated in violent protests in Egypt and Libya led Wednesday to a California Coptic Christian convicted of financial crimes who acknowledged his role in managing and providing logistics for the production. Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, 55, told The Associated Press in an interview outside Los Angeles that he was manager for the company that produced "Innocence of Muslims," which mocked Muslims and the prophet Muhammad and may have caused inflamed mobs that attacked U.S. missions in Egypt and Libya. Nakoula denied he directed the film and said he knew the self-described filmmaker, Sam Bacile. But the cellphone number that AP contacted Tuesday to reach the filmmaker who identified himself as Sam Bacile traced to the same address near Los Angeles where AP found Nakoula. Nakoula denied he had posed as Bacile. During a conversation outside his home, he offered his driver's license to show his identity but kept his thumb over his middle name, Basseley. Records checks by the AP subsequently found it and other connections to the Bacile persona.

Interesting. A poster who fairly regularly posts from an anti-Israeli standpoint, preferring a Jewish source over the Associated Press in Wa. It appears to me that this is because the Israeli source says what you want to believe.

The people protesting the film grabbed the Ambassador, carried him to a car and rushed to Benghazi Medical Center.

The Ambassador was there to dedicate some joint venture between Harvard Med School and the Medical Center. mb Stevens had no ID on him. It was 2 AM and it was evidently mass confusion.

Your information is correct.
 
Re: Israeli filmmaker in hiding after anti-Islam movie sparks deadly Libya, Egypt pro

The real joke here is that Muslims are constantly asking us not to judge them all by the actions of a few extremists but the moment one American makes an insulting video it sparks protests against America as a whole. seems to be a double standard.

As far as the attack on the embassy is concerned, they are fairly certain it was a separate incident. There are plenty of reports saying it was an Al-Qaeda like group that used the protests as a distraction. They think it was in response to a video put out by the current leader of Al-Qaeda.

Guys an idiot to make the film. There is literally no reason to make this film other than to cause hatred like this we are seeing now. Guy is a ****ing moron. How the hell did he expect more radical Islamist's to respond?

The film proved itself true. Case closed.

Case was closed a long time ago.... Remember the cartoons?

Every once in a while, we should double-check just too see if those oppressed like animals can rise above. It's further proof that we must becomes actively involved in dismantling Islamic governments, or we will continue to have a huge portion of the earth inhabited by such vile ignorance.

Islamic governments have little to do with this.

Brutal, murderous oppression has everything to do with it. And until it is removed, there will be psychological animals in our human family.

Yes. Theo Van Gogh was murdered on the street because he drew cartoons that were regarded as "blasphemous."

Are you sure we have risen above anything when people in this country are holding the entire Islam community responsible for the actions of a few?
