CAIRO (AP) -- Al-Qaida's branch in Yemen has praised the killing of the U.S. ambassador in Libya and called for more attacks to expel American embassies from Muslim nations.

The statement, posted Saturday on Islamic militant websites, suggested al-Qaida was trying to co-opt the wave of angry protests in the Muslim world over a film produced in the United States denigrating the Prophet Muhammad.

Al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula said the killing this week of Ambassador Chris Stevens in an attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi was "the best example" for those attacking embassies.

It said protesters' aim should be to "expel the embassies of America from the lands of the Muslims" and called on protests to continue in Muslim nations "to set the fires blazing at these embassies."

1. Oy vie, what a day.

Just when you think things can't get more muddy, here we go.

2. And who can blame them? They have suffered so much.

I think the real blame for whatever Al-Qaida does ultimately lies with what American crackpots say.

Oh wait... al-Qaida? They are the bad violent religious fanatics, so I take it all back.

8. All religious fanatics are bad IMO.

They all want war and they all benefit from this video.

3. This video turns out to be the best recruitment tool Al Qaeda have had in a long time.

What a coincidence.

6. Perhaps . . .

. . . that was the intent?

is campaigning for Romney.

7. It seems Al Qaeda are trying to get unrecruited civilians to do their dirty work

Maybe they think President Obama won't use the Drones on their asses if ordinary civilians do the killing.

9. Does Al Qaeda even really exist?

I think the extent of their whole purpose is to give the teabaggers multiple orgasms every couple of weeks when they announce that yet another "#2" has been captured or killed.

Give me a break.
