But I learned long ago that no everything, in fact most things aren't a conspiracy theory.

But you know what, even if there were elements in the Middle East trying to mess with our election, it would only be fair. After all, how many times has the US messed with elections in the Middle East and around the globe. Hell, if we don't like who a particular country elects, we simply remove them from power.

There is exactly ONE person in the Middle East who wants there to be a Romney administration. That one single person's name is Benjamin Netanyahu. With that exception (and even he's possibly suffering from heat stroke or something) everyone else realizes that a President Romney will probably throw the US military at everything in the region, kill a metric shitload of people, and decide to go out in a "blaze of glory" by nuking Tehran or some shit like that.

So are you saying that somehow Netanyahu somehow was behind the funding, making and distribution of this film? That he somehow orchestrated the riots and deaths?

Sorry, but as has been shown time and again, we have plenty of idiots in this country ready to stir the shit storm, we don't need outside help.

Trust me, if I wanted to spout some shit like that off, I certainly wouldn't need you to do it for me.

No. I said that Bibi wants a Romney presidency. And that he's the only man in the entire region with that desire. And that it may have been caused by staring at the sun for several consecutive hours or something.

Mitt Romney would gladly steam room the entire Middle East. Outsource it with Indian workers, And take all the oil he finds and put it in the Cayman Islands.

I hope those people understand how devastating it would be for them to have a mitt Romney president in the US

The person/persons trying to interfere, are those responsible for the arab dubbed in particular version of the movie. That movie was intended to rile up the middle east.

I would not be surprised if he was consulted by others intent on causing trouble in our election. Not those protesting.
