Location of the attacks
On September 11, 2012, the U.S. embassy in Cairo, Egypt, and U.S. consulate
in Benghazi, Libya, were attacked during protests over media excerpts of
trailers of a purported film[5][6] titled Innocence of Muslims, which is
considered by the attackers to be blasphemous against the Islamic prophet,
Muhammad. In Egypt, a group scaled the embassy wall and tore down the
American flag, replacing it with a black Islamist flag. In Libya, rocket-
propelled grenades and small arms fired at the consulate and setting a fire
in the consulate by the militants killed the visiting U.S. Ambassador to
Libya Christopher Stevens, two U.S. Marines[7], Foreign Service Information
Management Officer Sean Smith;[8] and 10 Libyan policemen[9] and injured two
others. | r*********e 发帖数: 29495 | 2 听新闻说,就是有预谋的
