Analysis - The facts as we know them to date:
1. On September 11, You Tube allowed the posting of a 5 million dollar budget movie trailer depicting the Prophet Mohammed in a sleazy and highly slanderous light, when in fact the so-called "movie" should never have been broadcast anywhere. The originator is now in hiding.
2. As a result of this broadcasting, the U.S. embassies in Benghazi, Libya and Cairo Egypt were attacked by mobs under the mistaken impression that the U.S. was the originator.
3. The movie was the creation of a dual Israeli-American and financed by insane hard-line Christian fundamentalist religious groups in America and Zionist Jewish groups in Israel. There is definite possibility of Mossad involvement.
4. On the same day, news media worldwide had reported that Obama would not meet with Netanyahu during the latter's recent trip to America.
5. Four Americans, including the U.S. Ambassador to Libya were killed at the embassy in Libya. The Ambassador had two children, who now suffer for the sins of their parents, as always. They are completely innocent. The same goes for the children of the Libyans killed in the incident.
6. This production was designed to incite violence in the Muslim world, possibly throwing the U.S. presidential election, enraging the U.S. population and opening the door for U.S. government support for an invasion of Iran.
7. The U.S. response from the Obama administration has so far been one of further confrontation rather than genuine dialog. This is exactly what Netanyahu wants for his insistence on invading Iran. The Weapons (RPG's) used in the attack on the Libyan U.S. embassy were most likely the very same weapons provided to the Libyan "rebels" by the American CIA.
Our Views:
1. You Tube was obviously complicit and should be shut down until this is sorted out, the individuals responsible arrested and prosecuted for murder: 5 million U.S. dollars DOES NOT constitute the cost of an "amature" film and You Tube damn well knows this, being in the business of reproducing films and having already pulled THOUSANDS of "questionable" videos negating any claim to opposing or being a victim of censorship; free speech rights do not include murder;
2. A sincere dialog must be established between the Muslim world and the Western powers, in particular, the United States;
3. All violence must cease immediately before further lives are tragically lost on both sides;
4. The originator of this film who is now in hiding should be hunted down, prosecuted and executed, along with all involved in the financing and production of this so-called film;
5. Should the Israeli government be found complicit, those identified as involved must be brought up on Crimes Against Humanity charges, delivered up to and prosecuted at the Hague;
6. Sane Muslims and Christians must begin to reach out to each other to prevent tragic events such as this from occurring in the future;
7. Muslims worldwide must realize that this travesty is not the responsibility of the majority of the American people, who are repulsed by this incident;
8. The American people must realize that the actions of the rioters are not representative of the teachings of Islam and the vast majority of peaceful Muslims;
9. This insanity must end, and it must end now;
10. The responsibility for this rests solely on the United States State Department and Hillary Clinton;
11. And finally as horrible, unfair and unthinkable as it sounds, perhaps all Muslims should consider leaving the United States - immigrant and citizen alike - until such time as the government regains it's sanity and recognizes that we are all Americans, with unalienable rights as guaranteed us by our Constitution.
The 5th Estate will continuously report on this as the facts of the case are confirmed.

“The Truth means responsibility, which is exactly why everyone dreads it. If there is no way out, it is imperative to find a further way in. Now more than ever in U.S. history, Americans are shielding their eyes against the painful truth…. As for myself, I am capable of knowing and willing to know the whole truth, to know the worst, accept it, and then ACT ON IT.”
