National Geographic Channel’s Washington DC headquarters has increased security after receiving terror threats due to their latest project – the Osama Bin Laden film they are going to release two days before the election. The American media has ignored this story.
So far Barack Obama has not apologized.
Outrage: The National Geographic Channel has been bombarded with phone calls and blog posts from alleged Muslim extremists over the film. (Daily Mail)
The Daily Mail reported:
The National Geographic Channel’s Washington, DC headquarters has increased security after being inundated with terror threats over the upcoming release of the film Seal Team Six: The Raid on Osama Bin Laden, according to a source.
The full-length feature film is the first dramatization of the U.S. special forces operation that killed the mastermind of the September 11 attacks in Pakistan last May.
According to a New York Post source, the channel has been bombarded with phone calls and blogs posts from ‘Muslim extremist groups’ warning that anyone airing a film like this is asking for trouble.
‘Enough threats have come in that the network is on higher security alert,’ the source said. ‘They have a huge public building with a museum and 1,600 people working.’
The movie, which focuses on one of President Obama’s most successful moments in office, will premiere just two days before the November 6 election, drawing fire from critics on the right who have accused National Geographic of being partisan.
It does seem odd that the Obama administration assisted in the production of this film on Osama’s death that will be seen by millions but apologized for a cheap YouTube video that nobody saw(?)
