Imbecile Basseley Arrested

I have no sympathy for the Egyptian Coptic extremist who tried to incite people to riot, especially against the United States and Israeli diplomatic missions in predominantly Muslim countries.

This man is directly responsible for people dying, possibly not those who died in the Libyan attacks, except indirectly where the demonstrations created confusion that served as cover for terrorist attacks.

But other people have died as a result of these people who were outraged by someone attempting to do everything possible to trigger a reaction from people who were already in fairly desperate straits from the years of corruption and brutish abuse and oppression from Mubarek and other dictators.

This man meant us harm; period.
