Romney slams Obama for sympathizing with Islamists in Egypt, Libya - http://thedc.com/Sb9pgW
Gov. Mitt Romney slammed President Barack Obama‘s administration for sympathizing with the Islamists who attacked the U.S. diplomatic centers in Egypt and Libya.
“It’s disgraceful that the Obama Administration’s first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks,” said his statement released just after midnight as Sept. 11 came to a close.
“I’m outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi,” he said.
Romney’s sharp statement came after news websites highlighted the Cairo embassy’s attempt to appease a planned Sept. 11 protest or riot at the site, which was called by Islamists who oppose domestic or foreign criticism of Islam.
The Islamist protesters occupied part of the embassy, and said they were angry about a movie being shot in California that highlights many damaging statements and actions attributed by orthodox Muslims to Islam’s 7th century prophet, Muhammad.
On the same day, Islamists in next-door Libya attacked a U.S. consulate in Benghazi city, killing one U.S. employee and injuring another. The consulate was later abandoned.
Prior to the Sept. 11 protest, the embassy — which is now headed by a top State Department official who formerly was ambassador in Pakistan — condemned the movie’s Californian producers for “abuse” of the United State’s constitution’s first amendment.
