Benghazi Scapegoat: ‘Innocence of Muslims’ Producer on Supervised Release from Prison:

Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, the man allegedly behind the film “Innocence of Muslims,” has been granted supervised release from a federal prison, according to the U.S. Justice Department.

Nakoula is due to be formally freed next month, according to records.

Senators McCain, Graham Urge Release of Egypt’s Jailed Islamists:

DAY 1: Nidal Hasan – ‘I Am The Shooter’:

Nidal Malik Hasan fired the last of 146 bullets in his assault on Fort Hood, then walked outside where he met two civilians who asked about the commotion and the laser-sighted pistol in his hand.
