Secretary Clinton Delivers Powerful Religion Speech After Middle East Embassy Attacks – Yahoo! News.
Hillary Clinton Condemns the Movie and the Attacks-Nader-Nazemi
Looks like these protests have something to do with more than a silly movie. There are deep seated simmering anger at the West in General.
Secretary Clinton delivered a powerful and personal speech about religion at an Eid ul-Fitr reception, marking the end of the Muslim holiday of Ramadan. The speech, at times, was a direct response to the attacks on U.S. diplomatic missions in the Middle East, and the deaths of four diplomats at the hands of militants in Libya.
In her remarks, Clinton repeated much of what she’s said in the last two days. Namely that theBenghazi attack was carried out by a “small and savage group,” and that the United States completely rejects what she called the “inflammable and despicable” anti-Muslim film circulating the Internet. However, Clinton pointed out all religions have faced insults and denigration, but that’s no justification for violence. The response to such insults is what separates people of true faith from those who would use religion as an excuse to commit violent acts, she said.
