This is shot in a studio. Go visit a studio and see what is available in a studio including tanks. None of these guns can be fired most of them are welded. It does not cost that much to rent them with in studio.

GCC urges calm amid rage

DUBAI — The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) on Friday condemned an anti-Islam film as well as the violence it has triggered, as angry protests spread across the Muslim world, with demonstrators scaling the walls of US embassies in Tunisia and Sudan, torching part of a German embassy and clashing with security forces at an American fast-food restaurant that was set ablaze in northern Lebanon.
“This film cannot be accepted or excused as it abuses the feelings of Muslims and non-Muslims who reject insulting prophets, religions and beliefs,” GCC Secretary-General Abdullatif Al Zayani said in a statement.
Zayani also “condemned acts of violence against US embassies in some countries”, adding that “our anger... is no excuse to carrying out such attacks that only serve the low and suspicious aims of those who produced it”.
The GCC chief called for the issue to be dealt with “wisely” and for those who carry out or support such attacks to be punished.
Bahrain’s Interior Minister Shaikh Rashed bin Abdullah Al Khalifa ordered “the blocking and stopping of websites carrying the film mocking” Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), according to state news agency BNA.
Citizens were urged “not to participate in broadcasting the film by sharing it on social media networks”, and advised against allowing their children to watch it.
Egypt’s new Islamist president went on national TV and appealed to Muslims not to attack embassies, denouncing the violence earlier this week in Libya that killed four Americans. Mohammed Mursi’s first public move to restrain protesters after days of near silence appeared aimed at repairing strains with the United States over this week’s violence. Police in Cairo prevented stone-throwing demonstrators from nearing the US embassy, firing teargas and deploying armoured vehicles to push them back in a fourth day of clashes in the Egyptian capital.
The day of protests, which spread to around 20 countries, started small and mostly peacefully in countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The most violent demonstrations took place in the Middle East. In many places, only a few hundred took to the streets, mostly ultraconservative Islamists — but the mood was often furious.
Several thousand demonstrators protested outside the US Embassy in Tunis and battled with security forces, throwing stones as police fired volleys of teargas and shot in the air. Some protesters scaled the embassy wall and stood on top of it, planting a black flag with the Islamic profession of faith, “There is no God but Allah and Muhammad is his Prophet (peace be upon him).” The state news agency TAP said two demonstrators were killed.
The heaviest violence came in Sudan, where a prominent preacher on state radio urged protesters to march on the German Embassy to protest against alleged anti-Muslim graffiti on mosques in Berlin and then to the US Embassy to protest against the film.
Soon after, several hundred Sudanese stormed into the German embassy, setting part of an embassy building aflame along with trash bins and a parked car. Protesters danced and celebrated around the burning barrels as palls of black smoke billowed into the sky until police firing teargas drove them out of the compound. Some then began to demonstrate outside the neighbouring British embassy, shouting slogans.
Several thousand then moved on the American embassy, on the capital’s outskirts. They tried to storm the mission, clashing with Sudanese police, who opened fire on some who tried to scale the compound’s wall. It was not clear whether any protesters made it into the embassy grounds.
The police then launched giant volleys of teargas to disperse the crowd, starting a stampede. Witnesses reported seeing three protesters motionless on the ground, apparently dead, though there was no immediate confirmation of deaths in the violence.
Ahead of the expected wave of protests on Friday — a traditional day for rallies in the Islamic world — US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton explicitly denounced the movie, aiming to pre-empt further turmoil at its embassies and consulates.
“The United States government had absolutely nothing to do with this video,” she said before a meeting with the foreign minister of Morocco at the State Department. “We absolutely reject its content and message.” She said the video was “disgusting and reprehensible”.
Egypt’s Mursi said his TV address that “it is required by our religion to protect our guests and their homes and places of work”, he said. He called the killing of the American ambassador in Libya unacceptable in Islam. “To God, attacking a person is bigger than an attack on the Kaaba,” he said, referring to Islam’s holiest site in Makkah.
His speech came after President Barack Obama spoke with Mursi by telephone. The Obama administration has been angered by Mursi’s slow response to the attack on Tuesday night on the US Embassy in Cairo.
Several hundred people, protested in Cairo’s Tahrir Square after the Friday prayers and tore up an American flag.
Many in the crowd then moved to join protesters who have been clashing for several days with police between Tahrir and the US Embassy. “With our soul, our blood, we will avenge you, our Prophet,” they chanted as police fired volleys of teargas.
Elsewhere, one protester was killed in the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli in clashes with security forces, after a crowd of protesters set fire to a KFC and a Hardee’s restaurant. Protesters hurled stones and glass at police in a furious melee that left 25 people wounded, 18 of them police.

'No protest before Benghazi attack', wounded Libyan guard says
No protest before Benghazi attack, wounded Libyan guard says

BENGHAZI, Libya A Libyan security guard who said he was at the U.S. consulate here when it was attacked Tuesday night has provided new evidence that the assault on the compound that left four Americans dead, including the U.S. ambassador to Libya, was a planned attack by armed Islamists and not the outgrowth of a protest over an online video that mocks Islam and its founder, the Prophet Muhammad.
The guard, interviewed Thursday in the hospital where he is being treated for five shrapnel wounds in one leg and two bullet wounds in the other, said that the consulate area was quiet there wasnt a single ant outside, he said until about 9:35 p.m., when as many as 125 armed men descended on the compound from all directions.
The men lobbed grenades into the compound, wounding the guard and knocking him to the ground, then stormed through the facilitys main gate, shouting God is great and moving to one of the many villas that make up the consulate compound. He said there had been no warning that an attack was imminent.
Wouldnt you expect if there were protesters outside that the Americans would leave? the guard said.
The guard, located by searching hospitals for people injured Tuesday night, said he was 27 years old but declined to give his name. He asked that the hospital where he is being treated not be identified for fear that militants would track him down and kill him. He said he was able to escape by telling one of the attackers that he was only a gardener at the compound. The attacker took him to the hospital, the guard said.
Libyan authorities told reporters Thursday that they had made four arrests in connection with the consulate assault, but they cautioned that leaders of the group blamed for the attack, an Islamist organization known as Ansar al Shariah, denied that they had given the order to attack. But the guards tale suggested that whoever ordered the assault had been able to call upon a large number of people to carry out what appeared to be an organized attack.
Wanis al Sharif, the deputy interior minister responsible for Libyas eastern region, which includes Benghazi, told a group of local reporters that in addition to the four people under arrest, authorities were monitoring others for possible involvement in the attack.
There is a group under our control, and there is another we are monitoring, Sharif said.
Sharif said that Ansar al Shariahs leaders had suggested that those carrying the groups flag during the assault were rogue members acting on their own.
They called me and told me you have wronged us, Sharif said. They told me that there may be individual acts.
Ansar al Shariah Partisans of Islamic law which is based in Benghazi, is one of the largest Islamic extremist groups now operating in Libya, according to an analysis published Wednesday by Aaron Zelin of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.
The shadowy organization is led by Muhammad Zahawi and maintains "online connections" to a similarly named group in Tunisia. A unit, or katiba, based in Derna, an eastern town from which extremists made their way to fight U.S. forces in Iraq, is commanded by a former Guantanamo prison detainee, Abu Sufayan bin Qumu, according to Zelin.
Where Sharifs findings would fit in the U.S. investigation into the death of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the other Americans remained unclear. But the guards tale suggests that there were many more than four people involved in the attack.
The attack itself, the guard said, was immediate and bold, initiated by a group of men who approached the compound and lobbed grenades over the wall. Just behind them were scores of men, shooting wildly and yelling God is great.
The guard, who said hed been hired seven months ago by a British company to protect the compound, said the first explosion knocked him to the ground, and he was unable to fire his weapon. Four other contracted guards and three members of Libyas 17th of February Brigade, a group formed during the first days of the anti-Gadhafi uprising and now considered part of Libyas military, were protecting the outside perimeter of the compound.
After storming through the gate, the guard said, the men rushed into one of the compounds buildings, meeting no resistance. The guard did not say whether that was the building where the ambassador was.
Thirty minutes later, the guard said, he realized he was about to lose consciousness and asked one of the attackers for help, saying he was merely a gardener at the compound. The man agreed to drive him to the hospital. As they were leaving, the guard said he saw the attackers enter a second villa on the compound.
Stevens and consulate computer expert Sean Smith are believed to have been overcome by smoke in the main consulate building. Two other State Department employees were shot and killed by the invaders at another building on the compound where Americans had sought refuge. The two men, both former Navy SEALs who were working as security contractors, were identified by family members as Glen A. Doherty, 42, a native of Winchester, Mass., and Tyrone Woods, 41, of Imperial Beach, Calif. At least three other embassy employees were wounded.
A Libyan emergency room doctor who treated Stevens said Libyan security guards brought him to the hospital at 1 a.m., his lips black and his body reeking of smoke.
He was officially pronounced dead at 1:45 a.m. from smoke inhalation and carbon monoxide poisoning, but the doctor who tried to revive him, Ziad Bouzaid, 31, said Stevens was dead on arrival. Bouzaid said the body bore no other signs of injury.
The guards tale is consistent with a version offered Wednesday by the man who had leased the compound to the United States.
Standing outside the fire-gutted compound, Mohammad al Bishari said the attack began with assailants carrying assault rifles, rocket-propelled grenades and the black flag of Ansar al Shariah moving from two directions against the compound.
The FBI has launched its own investigation into what took place, and two American destroyers, the USS Laboon and the USS McFaul, were expected to take up positions by early next off the coast near Benghazi in what many here interpreted as preparations for a possible retaliatory attack. On Wednesday, President Barack Obama promised justice in the case.
Meanwhile, fallout continued Thursday from anger over an online video that Muslims said denigrated their religion.
In Sanaa, Yemen, demonstrators protesting the video tried to storm the U.S. Embassy, making it past an initial security line but failing to make it to any of the main embassy compound buildings. Demonstrators burned tires and spray-painted Death of America on the wall surrounding the compound before they were repulsed by Yemeni security forces firing tear gas and warning shots.
No embassy staff was injured, but four demonstrators were killed and as many as 30 others injured.
Yemeni President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi quickly condemned the attack and vowed to punish those responsible for it.
Unrest continued as well Thursday in Cairo, where on Tuesday protesters breached the embassy compounds wall and tore down and burned the American flag. Protests continued Thursday, even though Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi, speaking publicly on the attacks for the first time, condemned them.
No one has claimed responsibility for the consulate assault, something that perhaps is unsurprising in this part of Libya, where Stevens was a popular ambassador representing a nation many here believed saved Benghazi from a massacre during the rebellion against toppled Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi. Gadhafis tanks were on the edge of the city, preparing to overrun it, when NATO jets began their bombing campaign March 19, 2011.
Indeed, throughout the day Thursday, Libyans nationwide held rallies in support of the ambassador, carrying signs in Arabic and at times broken English offering their support.
Sorry People of America, this not the Pehavior our Islam and Profit, one read.

Re: 'No protest before Benghazi attack', wounded Libyan guard says

Google rejects White House request to remove anti-Islam film clip
Google Inc rejected a request by the White House on Friday to reconsider its decision to keep online a controversial YouTube movie clip that has ignited anti-American protests in the Middle East.
The Internet company said it was censoring the video in India and Indonesia after blocking it on Wednesday in Egypt and Libya, where U.S. embassies have been stormed by protestors enraged over depiction of the Prophet Mohammad as a fraud and philanderer.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Ambassador to Libya and three other Americans were killed in a fiery siege on the embassy in Benghazi.
Google said was further restricting the clip to comply with local law rather than as a response to political pressure.
"We've restricted access to it in countries where it is illegal such as India and Indonesia, as well as in Libya and Egypt, given the very sensitive situations in these two countries," the company said. "This approach is entirely consistent with principles we first laid out in 2007."
White House officials had asked Google earlier on Friday to reconsider whether the video had violated YouTube's terms of service. The guidelines can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com/t/community_guidelines.
Google said on Wednesday that the video was within its guidelines.
U.S. authorities said on Friday that they were investigating whether the film's producer, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, a 55-year old Egyptian Coptic Christian living in Southern California, had violated terms of his prison release. Basseley was convicted in 2010 for bank fraud and released from prison on probation last June.

The Internet company said it was censoring the video in India and Indonesia after blocking it on Wednesday in Egypt and Libya, where U.S. embassies have been stormed by protestors enraged over depiction of the Prophet Mohammad as a fraud and philanderer.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Ambassador to Libya and three other Americans were killed in a fiery siege on the embassy in Benghazi.
Google said was further restricting the clip to comply with local law rather than as a response to political pressure.
"We've restricted access to it in countries where it is illegal such as India and Indonesia, as well as in Libya and Egypt, given the very sensitive situations in these two countries," the company said. "This approach is entirely consistent with principles we first laid out in 2007."
White House officials had asked Google earlier on Friday to reconsider whether the video had violated YouTube's terms of service. The guidelines can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com/t/community_guidelines.
Google said on Wednesday that the video was within its guidelines.
U.S. authorities said on Friday that they were investigating whether the film's producer, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, a 55-year old Egyptian Coptic Christian living in Southern California, had violated terms of his prison release. Basseley was convicted in 2010 for bank fraud and released from prison on probation last June.
