Westerwelle condemns movie defaming Prophet Mohammed

German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle on Friday condemned the attack on the German embassy in Khartoum and also condemned the film \"Innocence of Muslims\" which mocks and insults Prophet Muhammad, [Peace and Blessing Be Upon Him]. His condemnation came after thousands of protesters in the Sudanese capital Khartoum stormed the German embassy. \"I expressly condemn the attack on the German embassy in Khartoum and demand from the Sudanese authorities and government that the integrity and security of the embassy is restored,\" Westerwelle said in a press conference on Friday afternoon. \"I understand the fury in the Islamic world at the anti-Islamic hate video and I condemn this video, but this is no justification for violence and the storming of embassies or endangering of people\'s lives. The video is unacceptable and hurts the feelings of millions of believers but this is no justification for violence,\" he said. He also confirmed that the embassy staff were safe despite the storming and torching of the embassy building.
