Press Release | Embassy of the United States
And, just in case the site changes this, I'll copy it below.
It makes me SICK to think that this is how the Obama administration responds to the invasion of the sovereign territory of the United States of America. It is even more sickening to know that this pathetic and misdirected missive was issued on the same day that the US Ambassador to Libya was suffocated to death by savages of the same ilk.
Are they serious?! Somehow, something someone did 10,000 miles away is responsible for this? The World Turned Upside Down.
Islamism and Islamists are the enemy. This is not a religious war. It's not a war against Islam. If you want to be a Muslim, that's great. Just be sure that the practice of your religion doesn't interfere with anyone else's practice of theirs.
It is a war of political ideology in which Liberty is pitted against Tyranny. And there can be only one victor. Peaceful coexistence is as anathema today as it was during the Cold War.
"U.S. Embassy Condemns Religious Incitement
"September 11, 2012
"The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims - as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions. Today, the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, Americans are honoring our patriots and those who serve our nation as the fitting response to the enemies of democracy. Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others"
