‘The video clearly, in places, inspired protests ... it’s just common sense’

HARF: "It was clear to anyone watching what happened around the Muslim world on that day that the video clearly in places inspired protests – and violent protests in some places, if we look at Tunis, if we look at Khartoum. And we know that extremists throughout the region sought to take advantage of the video, including in Libya. The investigation’s looking into now exactly what role that played. This was a very complicated situation. There were a number of folks involved in this attack, some of which – some of whom, excuse me, were there for different reasons. Not everyone was there for the same reason. But we know – it’s just common sense – you could see the protests around the world – that the video was clearly being used by extremists as some sort of rallying cry against the United States."
