Wonder what's all the fuss about socal director going by the name of Sam Bacile? According to news there is no real Sam Bacile, he is actually a 52 year old Israeli American real estate developer. "Sam" had made a 14 minute clip in July of "The Innocence of Muslims" Egyptian media starting showing it off on air. He's film was disrespecting muslims based about a religious leader being gay etc. He wasn't even muslim, he is egyptian. The film feuded many muslims. Protesters starting doing attacks which many believe that leaded to the murder of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens. Nihad Awad, national executive director of the washing based council stated "Those who created this trashy film do not represent the people of America or the Christian faith. The only proper response to intentional provocations such as this film is efforts o promote mutual understanding between faiths and to marginalize extremists of all stripes." Sam went missing (hiding) after U.S. Consulate attack.
I chose this article because it caught my attention of being practically all over the news making headlines how this was so erotic and pretty much is the reason why our Ambassador J. Christopher has been murdered and this takes a big part in our country as Americans. This impacts me as a student because this shows how any message can be send out, positive or negative it is easy to access and publish through internet and be seen everywhere and affect many. I wonder how ignorant the cast must have been if many of them are saying how they had a feeling he wasn't even muslim and they were suspicious of the socal director "Sam Bacile".
