Doc, why would there be an "ongoing investigation"? What law was broken?
Pixie, while I agree that it's BS that there is an investigation to begin with, because there IS an investigation the film maker is not guaranteed anonymity
Investigation? If they are investigating someone, that does not give our government the right to divulge any information, till all their ducks are in a row, or am I wrong?
"Persons of interest" are routinely publicized in any number of instances
There are even assholes on this thread who are trying to pretend the Fed did not officially out this guy.
LOL
They didn't.
An anonymous source leaked it to the AP. Nothing "official" about it.
Let me give you the remedial help you need. No charge, this time:
WASHINGTON (AP) Federal authorities have identified a Coptic Christian in southern California
Here is what the coward did before he was outed:
An Israeli filmmaker went into hiding on Tuesday after his movie attacking Islam's Prophet Muhammad sparked angry assaults by Muslims on U.S. diplomatic missions in Egypt and in Libya, where one American was killed.
Speaking by phone from an undisclosed location, writer and director Sam Bacile remained defiant, saying Islam is a cancer and that he intended his film to be a provocative political statement condemning the religion.
Protesters angered over Bacile's film opened fire on and burned down the U.S.consulate in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi, killing an American State Department officer on Tuesday. In Egypt, protesters scaled the walls of the U.S. embassy in Cairo and replaced an American flag with an Islamic banner.
Bacile, a California real estate developer in his fifties who identifies himself as an Israeli Jew, said he believes the movie will help his native land by exposing Islam's flaws to the world. "
"Islam is a cancer, period," he repeatedly said in a solemn, accented tone.
The two-hour movie, "Innocence of Muslims," cost $5 million to make and was financed with the help of more than 100 Jewish donors, said Bacile, who wrote and directed it.
Understand? Muslims were out killing people in the streets and this Christian extremist not only decides to throw some more fuel on the fire with his deliberate "Islam is a cancer" rhetoric, he then aims the fire at Israel.
What a c---.

It's unclear what "the investigation" is investigating, but it might not have anything to do with the movie. Nakoula was convicted of multiple accounts of bank fraud 2 years ago, and he's still on probation from it.Doc, why would there be an "ongoing investigation"? What law was broken?
No one is suggesting "taking speech away" from anyone.
WHEN FREEDOM OF SPEECH CROSSES THE LINE.
'When freedom of speech incites violence against a race, religion or ones sexual orientation and causes death of innocent people it crosses the line and is no longer a matter of principle and the person or persons that miss-used their First Amendment Rights should be held accountable. '

And dozens of others. Hope that helps, tard.
Again, you bring in another thread as a straw man.
I feel no reason to defend any morons in the other thread who have suggested curtailing free speech. They are as incorrect as you are.
That doesn't change the fact that in this discussion, no one has suggested that.
anybody here know what the riot act is?
anybody here know what the riot act is?
( It was intentional. Word is that video was out months ago. Nobody really saw it. Yet this person is going to get the full blame which will "justify" Obama's black list.
anybody here know what the riot act is?
An American law that would have no jurisdiction in another country?
So fucking what???????????????????????? We hear A HELLUVA lot worse about Christianity.. Me thinks thou doth protest too much.. WHY THE FUCK IS THAT??????? Hmmm?????????
An awful lot of people here trying to defend this guy.

But that doesn't make it right. Does it? There is stigma attached to many accusations. Not only that, but the guy I hear went into hiding, and for some government official to make his name known???......
Theo Van Gogh comes to mind and countless cartoonists that had to hide, and countless others that have spoken out about Islam
An awful lot of people here trying to defend this guy.
I don't recall liberals demanding the death, trashing of any director who has blasphemed God, christianity??? WHY IS THAT?? Conservatives defend his right to say whatever the hell he wants WITHOUT fear of big daddy government interfering.

That's it? You got your ass handed to you and all you have is a "so what", followed by a logical fallacy, and then some wild guesswork in all caps all in one sentence?
Awesome. A cowardly fuck tries to get innocent people killed and you can't come up with any more excuses.
Sorry to make your butt hurt.

I think it had to do with outing who and where the filmmaker is, Doctor. It makes him a target of Islam, and he and his associates will never be safe again.Let me ask you...who is suggesting we put freedom in a box? Because until you clear that up, it's hard to answer a none-existant issue.
Every time a bunch of barbarians act like a bunch of barbarians against our very own people, there are some, scratch that...Many, that wish to find blame in something we do as Americans. We take umbrage to that.
How about we blame the barbarians for once? That might be a novel idea, but it might work to bring unity to us as Americans
There's no question that the blame lies with the people who attacked the embassy, not the filmmaker - and I don't see anyone else excusing the acts of the attackers at all.
But the OP isn't about who is to blame for the attacks - it's accusing "the government" of violating the "rights" of the filmmaker. And that's just fantasy.
