A Film stirs up attacks and deaths of four!

One day after the 9-11 day of remembrance, we face the attack on the Embassy in Libya which resulted in the death of our Ambassador and three other Americans.   People stormed the embassy, well-armed, because of the negative film of Mohammed which someone filmed and put on U Tube.

Ambassador Chris Stevens was killed.


Rebels roamed the streets outside the Embassy showing their arsenal which made one know that the raid (unlike the raid in Cairo which also occurred yesterday) was not spontaneous.  

The facts are just coming out and what we know is mostly subject to change.  Who knows, yet, who made the film, who stirred up the Muslims, who two of the victims are, how this will play out in political circles and religious circles, on and on.   But what we do know is that four Americans are dead, killed by intruders in an American Embassy stirred up by an inflammatory film which desecrated Mohammad, the prophet of Islam!

True theological irony!  Killing those who deface another faith!  Defacing the faith of another!  Where does my freedom end and another person's freedom begin?  Is world peace possible?

Hebrews 32:34 "Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord."
