German Press Review On Middle East Violence Against US Embassies

US embassies in the Muslim world were on high alert Friday following days of violent protests against an anti-Islam film. Germany, too, closed several embassies in fear of attacks. Some German commentators argue that the violence shows that Obama's Middle East policies have failed.

After days of protests over an anti-Islam film, American diplomatic missions in the Middle East and North Africa were braced for further violence after Friday prayers. The US put its overseas missions on high alert.

Germany has closed its embassies in a number of Muslim-majority countries in fear of attacks. "We are observing how the security situation develops with great attentiveness and we have increased security precautions at a number of foreign missions," a spokesman for the German Foreign Office told SPIEGEL ONLINE. Embassies in North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan are believed to be among those affected.

The spokesman said that the missions would only close on Friday, though. Other German institutions such as aid organizations have also been urged to increase security precautions, he said.

Interestingly the entire world is upset with what the U.S. is doing and somehow it's still every other nation/group's fault.

Can't remember who but there has been a gentleman who has suggested that we do not meddle in affairs unless we have a good reason to do so.

Money and greed are not good reasons to support regional chaos.

Oh yeah, it was Ron Paul, the same guy who's legislature to end U.S. funding of rebel groups was shot down a few months ago.

Although the president has virtually no control over the Banksters; Ron Paul seems like he'd be the only one willing to make an attempt.

Unfortunately the election is funded by the Banksters.....
