An American has been killed in Libya as Egyptian and Libyan protestors have climbed the walls of the US embassy in Cairo and and the US Consulate Benghazi, today. Falling on the anniversary of the September 11 attacks, protestors are apparently angry about an amateur video that depicts the Prophet Mohammed in an insulting manner. Chanting anti-American slogans, the protestors tore down the American flag in Cairo and replaced it with a black one that says, "There is no God but Allah and Mohammad is his messenger." The BBC, Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal have reported that the film was US-produced, with the WSJ reporting the film was then promoted by fundamentalist Christian pastor Terry Jones.
