What did Obama achieve by running apology pro-sharia campaign ads in Pakistan? He sanctioned the motive. He sanctioned the brutal, anti-human blasphemy laws under the sharia. The more he fails .... the more he fails. There will be catastrophic consequences to the disastrous foreign policy failures of our anti-freedom president.
Deadly Anti-U.S. Riots Despite Obama's Ad Denouncing Video ABC News 
Deadly anti-U.S. protests erupted in Pakistan despite an unusual ad on
Pakistani TV featuring President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton denouncing the movie "Innocence of Muslims," the anti-Islam video that has fueled much of the Pakistani fury.

The ads have been running this week on seven different Pakistani
television stations in an attempt to cool tempers over the film, but
today's protests were the largest seen so far since the controversy
began in Pakistan last week with the attempted storming of the U.S.
embassy.

A Pakistani Cabinet minister has today
offered a US$100,000 reward for the death of the US filmmaker whose
movie features a depiction of Islam’s Prophet Mohammed.

Railways Minister Ghulam Ahmad Bilor said he would pay the reward out of his own pocket.

He also urged the Taliban and al-Qaida to perform the “sacred duty” of helping locate and kill the filmmaker.

More than 20 people died yesterday in clashes with police in cities throughout the country.

The
film has sparked violent protests throughout the Muslim world that
resulted in the deaths of dozens, including the US ambassador to Libya.

Scores
of people were injured today in a clash in Bangladesh’s capital between
police and hundreds of demonstrators, as protests continued in the
Muslim world against the film.

Police fired tear gas and used
batons today to disperse the stone-throwing protesters, who were from
about a dozen Islamic groups.

The protesters burned several vehicles in Dhaka, including a police van, witnesses said.

Dozens of protesters were arrested at the demonstration and inside the nearby National Press Club, where participants took refuge, a Dhaka Metropolitan Police official said.

Police and witnesses said scores of people were injured.

The clash erupted when authorities attempted to halt the demonstration, police said.

Authorities
have banned all protests near the city’s main Baitul Mokarram mosque
since yesterday, when more than 2,000 people marched and burned an
effigy of President Barack Obama.

The protesters announced a nationwide general strike tomorrow to protest the police action.

In
Pakistan, protests continued today, with more than 1,500 people,
including women and children, rallying in Pakistan’s capital. The crowd
was peaceful but angry over the release of the video called Innocence of
Muslims, which portrays the Prophet Mohammed as a fraud, a womaniser
and a child molester.

The protesters – from the Minhaj-ul-Quran
religious group – marched through Islamabad’s streets and then gathered
near Parliament, chanting slogans against the filmmaker and demanding
stern punishment for him.

Thousands of people also protested
today in Nigeria’s largest city, Kano. The crowd marched from a mosque
to the palace of the Emir of Kano, the region’s top spiritual leader for
Muslims.

About 200 students
in Srinagar, the main city in Indian-controlled Kashmir, chanted “Down
with America” and “Long live Islam” in a peaceful protest.

Some carried a placard that read: “There is no God but Allah and Mohammed is his messenger.”
